How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe location was great, 15 minutes walking to the subway, 10-15 minutes to the old town. Shared kitchen and balcony.
The bed was very uncomfortable. There was no option for early check-in or for leaving the luggage. There was a party in the hotel, and the people were behaving very loudly till early morning. Impossible to sleep / rest.

It would have been nice to have dish soap in the kitchen. Also extra toilet paper since I stayed a few days. I had to ask for clean towels after 3 days.

Verified reviewGreat value. Very clean and looks very well maintained. It’s close to a cobbled street with many restaurants and about 20-minute walk to the river, on the way are many tourist attractions so I find the location good. There’s a shared kitchen and terrace. It was peak season when I was there but a couple of nights I was the only one in the building. Very quiet street for sleeping. I like that the AC works and the TV has English channels.
There’s nearby construction but it’s currently all over Porto. It’s only during work hours so not so bad.
Hi Julian! Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback about your stay. We are truly delighted to know that you found the property to be clean, well maintained, and of great value. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the convenient location, the peaceful nights, and the amenities such as the kitchen, the terrace, the air conditioning, and the English TV channels. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and mean a lot to our team. We also thank you for your understanding regarding the nearby construction works — as you mentioned, this is indeed something affecting several areas of Porto at the moment, but we are glad it didn't disrupt your stay significantly. It was a pleasure to have you with us, and we very much hope to welcome you back again in the future. With warm regards, Bárbara

Verified reviewThe property was in a good location in the city but the immediate street where it is located is dirty, with broken glass everywhere and a strong smell of urine. There are good facilities in the property including a kitchen and a common area. The room had good AC. The property was better value than other similar properties in Porto.
The property is right next to an active building site from which there are loud noises, including non-stop hammering which shakes the entire building, all day starting at 8am. This is not the fault of the property but we were not made aware of this in advance. There was an ant infestation in the bedroom, which was quite distressing and disturbing. The hotel did not help in any way or apologise for this when notified. There was no housekeeping service. We stayed for 4 nights with the same towels and sheets.
Hello O'Brien, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent stay with us. We truly appreciate hearing what our guests think, as it helps us to improve. We're pleased to know that you found the location convenient, the facilities useful, and the room’s air conditioning to your liking. Regarding the construction work nearby, we understand that the noise can be disruptive, and we sincerely regret any inconvenience it caused. Unfortunately, this is beyond our control, but we do try to keep our guests informed and are always available to help find solutions whenever possible. In relation to the ants, our team responded promptly to your message and offered assistance at the time. It's important for us to mention that food left in the room can attract insects, and we always encourage guests to use the kitchen and common areas for meals to help prevent this. We also wish to clarify that we are always available to provide fresh towels or linens upon request — our team is happy to help at any time and responds quickly to all messages, but we didn't receive any further reply from you regarding this during your stay. We genuinely regret that your experience didn't fully meet your expectations and appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us. We will continue to do our best to ensure all our guests have a comfortable stay. Thank you once again for choosing to stay with us. Best regards, Bárbara

Verified reviewStaff were too friendly especially Mr. Carlos he was too helpful and assisted me in the best way ever.
A basket and a mirror is needed in the room itself maybe near the table and if u are heading to the hotel by taxi from the airport u better put the location of any near by restaurant such as Food express. They have no place to keep the luggages after you check out so u will need to go to the Trinidade metro station to leave you luggages there. In the basement of the metro station on the right side u will find the lockers and payment can be done only in cash or else on the left side there is like a kiosk that will keep the cabin bag for 7 euros until 7pm. If u don’t carry ur bank cards like me then bring cash with u to Porto as it is almost impossible to withdraw by phone from the atm machines.
Hi Doaa, Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed feedback — we truly appreciate it! We're especially happy to hear that you felt well cared for by our team, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Carlos — he’ll be delighted to know he made a positive impression on your stay! Thank you also for the helpful suggestions regarding the mirror and basket in the room — those are great ideas, and we’ll definitely take them into consideration for future improvements. We also appreciate you sharing such useful tips about luggage storage near Trindade metro station — that information will surely help other travelers. And you're absolutely right about the cash situation; it's a great reminder to carry some euros when visiting Porto, especially for services that still operate offline. We hope to welcome you back in the future, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if there's anything we can do to make your next visit even more comfortable. Warm regards!
