Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaFound bubble gum in one of the power outlets, given that are not too many outlets, I had to get creative. The staff reacted immediately to addressing the issue for the next guest.
Unique and modern, lots of options given location.

United States of AmericaRead the whole welcome letter.. lol This spot popped up on a search while driving. We'd Skied at Giants Ridge all day and I wasn't paying attention to the details. But all the info we needed was there.
We were traveling through The area and bought tickets to see Next to Normal at the Duluth. Playhouse, so finding lodging across the street was terrific. We were able to get good food at Pizza Luche after the performance within 2 blocks of the Oliver.Our room was just off the street and it was very quiet. It was $15 for 24 hours of parking in the nearby lot. Everything was comfortable efficient and pleasant

United States of AmericaParking wasn't ideal and walking through the many homeless inquiring about belongs as we carried them to hotel was unsetting. Also, walking through the hostess area of a restaurant was strange as well as the elevator floor numbering system.
We liked the historical features and cool ambience of the hotel. The free drink tickets were an added bonus because the bar at the hotel was unique and the live band (week night)was excellent as well as incredibly friendly bar staff.

United States of AmericaI didn't like the neighborhood, as a solo traveler I made sure I was in my room before dark because I didn't feel safe out on the streets.
The room and facilities were great, I love the architecture and the Wasabi Restaurant was delicious!

United States of AmericaThe bathrooms could have been a little cleaner and well stocked. It was challenging that they were separate from the room but we were aware of that beforehand which helped.
It was a really unique and well located hotel for a great price- however the bathroom is a shared bathroom which wasn't stocked well and could use some attending to. But other than that we had a great time and loved the walkability to the waterfront as well as the fun speakeasy in the basement!

United States of AmericaBooked this for a ski trip to Spirit Mountain with my teenage son. Parking should be negotiated with the ramp and included for guests. Who wants to pay every time you come/go? Didn't care for the shared bathroom. Booking. com said cancellations were ok but staff wasn't having it. No staff on duty, only was able to contact through phone chat. We never checked in but paid for the room anyway, Scam. I miss the Voyageurs Inn,
It's in Duluth.

United States of AmericaWe didn't like the idea of it not having any windows, what we we have done had there been a fire... The room had no air exchange, no A/C like the Manager said there would be.. Didn't know the rooms didn't have any bathrooms in them, having to share the shower room was not what we wanted to be doing... Having to go in by the Sushi restaurant, no one to assist etc. Was never given the WiFi pass code, TV was hopeless...
Only thing that was convenient was that the Motel was right across the street from the Cadino...

United Kingdomthere was no window in our room and the ac was momentarily broken(although a fan was provided). mostly I didn’t like the fact that the bathroom wasn’t part of the room and was shared with other 3 rooms.
the location was near numerous premises in town, and the interior of the room were cozy and intimate.

United States of AmericaThis was one of the most unique and memorable experience we have had in all of our travels. I am always looking for somewhere to stay that is a little different than a regular hotel room. The Oliver exceeded my expectations. We had a room with a share bathroom which was just fine. Our room was large and cozy, and did have a sink which was nice. Check-in is virtual so if you don't receive an email prior to your stay, call the hotel and they will send it to you. The instructions were very easy to follow. To add to your experience, visit the Speakeasy Lounge downstairs for a nice relaxing cocktail. You won't regret making the decision to stay at The Oliver!
