Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThis apartment is great and very centrally located to visit all the main attractions in Porto. Antonio is a fabulous and enthusiastic host who made a huge effort to ensure we made the most of our trip. He provided breakfast items and delicious local treats every day during our lovely stay in Porto and gave us lots of interesting information about the city and the sights. The chocolate cake and the jams (the peach jam is excellent) made by his Mum were just great, the port was amazing and the transport to and from the airport was fab. Thank you to our great host! 😁😁😁

PolandThere are two key highlights about this apartment. First, the apartment itself: it's spacious, beautifully maintained, and fully equipped with everything you might need. It's perfectly located in the city center, yet surprisingly quiet. I especially enjoyed relaxing on the balcony with a glass of Porto! Second – and even more important – is the host, Antonio. He takes hospitality to a whole new level, genuinely putting his heart into making your stay as enjoyable as possible. From the moment he warmly greeted us and drove us to the apartment in his spacious Volvo, we knew we were in good hands. Antonio goes far beyond expectations – welcoming us with his mother’s famous chocolate cake and a bottle of Porto wine, thoughtfully restocking the fridge, and treating us daily with sweet surprises. He also shared plenty of helpful tips and insights about Porto, making our stay even more enriching. Our family of four had a wonderful time – each of us, and all of us together. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at this place! Antonio is incredibly kind and welcoming. He gave us so many great recommendations for places to visit, eat, and explore in the area. Every day, he surprised us with thoughtful treats — pastéis de nata, delicious chocolate cake homemade by his mother, fresh croissants… such a generous host! The apartment is charming, with a small balcony perfect for enjoying a morning coffee, and a compact kitchen that’s ideal for a family stay. It’s also very well located — close to a grocery store and within walking distance of the main tourist attractions. We truly felt at home. Thank you, Antonio, for your warm hospitality — you made our stay truly unforgettable!

United StatesWe didn’t think the door to the living room was necessary and in the way more than anything.
Friendly welcoming and gracious host who provided special treats from the arrival to everyday during put stay. António picked us up at the Bus station and dropped us off at the airport in his spacious Volvo SUV, which was super convenient. The apartment was in an excellent central location to walk or take bus to everywhere we wanted to visit in Porto. We bought 72-hr Andante ticket to take buses when we were tired to walk back. We even took Bus 500 to the Duoro river front to the beach area. Enjoyed sitting on the sunny balcony sipping coffee and porto wine. Porto is a lovely city and thanks to Antonio, it was extra special!!
