My wife and I stayed at Ray's Bucktown B&B early Sept. 08. It is a great place to stay, the beds are soft, the breakfasts plentiful and the staff are very friendly. It is close to the train station to the city and is in a safe neighbourhood. I... read more

We stayed for a long weekend at the end of March 2008. We arrived early in the day and our room wasn't ready, but we were able to drop off our luggage, get some directions and a key and we were out the door to go shopping. We loved our room (we... read more

1/07 The bed and breakfast was way too focused on the breakfast adn no the bed part! The whole house smelled like old grease, when we went out everyday we had the smell on our clothes. In addition, our room lacked proper heat. The plug in heater... read more

Innkeeper Response

Here at Ray’s we try our best to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable (see ALL the other reviews). We are sorry these guests had a problem with their heating, but unfortunately we could have easily shown them how to adjust the heat if they would have simply brought it to our attention. (the plug-in heater is just an added feature and it does work). We have two very efficient central heat & A/C systems, and we have had hundreds of people stay in the Skylight Room without a complaint. It does not seem fair to write a bad review without having given us a chance to correct the problem. Since we opened 3 years ago, the ‘15 years ago’ photo comment seems to be a little mean-spirited along with the whole "old grease smell" (We have had over 5,000 guests and not one person has ever mentioned it). We bend over backwards to make sure your stay is comfortable, your rooms are clean and you enjoy your experience. Like all B&B owners, if something is not right, bring it to our attention and we will fix/correct/change whatever it is. We hope to have you as our guest.

We've stayed at a lot of B&B's over the years and their ad is right, Ray's is definitely not your old, staid, fussy B&B. It is so much better than that! The atmosphere was fun, the staff friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were... read more
