Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Shower - pressure was a bit weak and was one of those with only half a screen so inevitably the bathroom floor gets wet
Nicely themed 'Old Mexico' hotel with interesting pictures of times gone by adorning the walls. Decent bar & restaurant on site. All staff were welcoming and friendly. Room was spacious and comfortable. Good location for Old Town, not so much for city centre. Plenty of parking spaces.

The free breakfast this time was not as good as in past visits. The breakfast burrito was about 85% filled with potato rather than eggs and potato. Nevertheless, it was tasty. The other thing is that although the cleaning staff are good, cleaners and thorough, they are quite noisy in the hall in the mornings when people are still trying to sleep. I would still happily stay there again.
I like that the property is reasonably priced and has an airport shuttle. The staff are very accommodating. They provide free breakfast, sometimes. I don’t exactly know how you get the free breakfast and how you don’t because I’ve stayed there several times and the first two times got free breakfast every day and the last time I got free breakfast one of two days. however, it is a decent place that is clean and comfortable

Close to freeway and not great neighborhood however the parking was free and surrounded by fence for security.
Only a few blocks to walk to Old town. Right off the freeway and loved that there was a restaurant and lounge with good food and great staff. The room was comfortable and updated 50” TV as we wanted to catch up on a game at night. Overall, although this was not the newest or most modern, it surpassed our expectations by staff and amenities.

Housekeeping could have improved. We asked twice to have housekeeping clean our room. We didn't require the bedsheets/pillow cases be replaced but would have liked clean towels without having to ask. I believe extra toilet paper should have been left in the room also. There are two rolls in the dual holder and one was completely out. I asked the front desk for another roll and she was happy to accommodate.
Had one dinner in hotel restaurant and was good. Waiter was nice and gave us ideas of things to see in the area.

I didn't realize until later in the week that we were being charged the $30 A night for a pet fee. I did notice dog bowls in our room and a pet bed. This trip I did not bring my dog but the staff was very kind and helpful of taking that charge off my bill
This place was great for never being to ABQ before,we came and saw the Gathering Of Nations,did a bunch of local shopping.,the hotel it self is one of the Best Western I've stayed,I'll be traveling soon more and hope to find one like this,the room was clean staff were very nice,the attached restaurant. The wild avocado was very good.food had a lot of choices and very flavorful the bartender. Joey in the tap and cork lounge was awesome. The first night we were there they started a karaoke night. The picture of the food was Jenny's tamales. My family makes tamales. We make them once a year. I always taste the rice and beans before anything else. If that's good then the rest should be good and it was
