About our reviews

About this publication

We publish independent assessments. Nothing here is sponsored and no placement is sold.

What we do

Frolvina is an independent editorial publication covering resort hotels and entertainment destinations across the northeastern tribal and commercial resorts. We assess properties, publish scores, and explain the reasoning; we do not sell rooms, take commission on bookings, or accept payment for placement.

Every assessment follows the same six-part rubric, applied on site. Both the score and the specific weakness we found are published, without softening.

What we measure

Six categories carry fixed weights in our scoring model. Applying the same weights everywhere is what makes one property's score meaningful against another's.

  • 25% — Casino and gaming lounges
  • 20% — Guest rooms
  • 20% — Front-of-house service
  • 15% — Food and beverage
  • 10% — Position and transit
  • 10% — Rate against delivery

Who pays for this

Independence is structural rather than declared. No property in this catalogue has paid to appear, none has been given sight of its review before publication, and none can have a criticism removed.

When we link out to a hotel or a reservation service, it is for convenience. The contract that follows is yours and the property's alone.

When we are wrong

Errors should be reported to our editorial address with the property name and the detail concerned. Confirmed corrections are published and the page's revision date is changed accordingly.
