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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Canada- You can not drop your bags before 12pm (In my case, I have specifically ask for a possible earlier checking way before the trip and I was not informed that) - Old couch and rugs, kind of dirty - The hot water stopped after two showers in a row. Not sure if it’s because of the normal old location of Porto but something to be mindful if you decide to go.
- Location - Apartment is well decorated - Well equipped

United StatesMinor issues: the chairs provided were very uncomfortable, mattresses were ok but not great, and the coffee maker did not work.
The hosts were very helpful and the location was great. The apartment was pretty good although it is not the same one pictured in the website. Despite some minor issues, I would recommend this as a reasonably priced place to stay in Porto.

CanadaWe like a new sponge, there was a fair bit of mold and you can smell it upon entry. There was a dehumidifier that we had to empty at min, daily. Basic damp place, no where to put your bags or hang your clothes. Terrace had not been cleaned for at least a few months.
Location was amazing- close to everything, bars, restaurants, small convenience stores, the basics. No eggs or bakery to be found but we were only there 4 days.

United KingdomThe hills! Not particularly suitable for people who are not good on their legs. Our experience was adversely affected by the weather - it didn't stop raining.
It's a historic city with plenty to see. This apartment is in the thick of it with plenty of bars and restaurants close by.

United KingdomThe small toilet had a mould issue. I think this is due to the stone walls or lack of ventilation but we couldn't use it and had to keep the door closed due to the damp smell. Luckily the room had 2 bathrooms so it wasn't too much of a problem. As it is also a residential block, depending on which flat you're in, the neighbours can be noisy. Very noisy family with kids jumping/running around upstairs. Some people may find this an issue if looking for somewhere really quiet.
The location was not too far from the main station, surrounding by some lovely family restaurants. Just be aware of the hills if deciding to walk there with a case. Room was good, good use of space and had a little balcony. Free coffee on arrival and, although we never met the owner, he was really easily contactable and got back to me with any queries I had straight away.

United KingdomWhen I booked I asked if we could drop off bags early as our flight arrived 9am and the host said it wasn't a problem. On arrival in Porto we messaged him and were told we had to wait until 12.30. It was really annoying as there was a massive storm and our bags were soaked through when we could finally drop them off. It was disappointing to have the host back track.
Fabulous apartment in an excellent location. The apartment is spacious and well equipped. Excellent pastel da nata in the bakery downstairs.

CanadaShower was fiddly to set the temperature and had some drainage issues which we mentioned to the owner upon leaving.
LOCATION! Honestly doesn’t get better than this. I was a bit worried about the subway construction noise but the old windows have new windows in front of them and then shutters so it wasn’t loud even when they were working. The back bedroom doesn’t have a window but the tall glass doors and wall with internal shutters avoid any closed in feeling. Both bedrooms have independent heating / cooling units. The place is modern and clean with a well operating lift although we usually used the stairs. Don’t miss the pasteis de nata on the corner!

ItalyThe sliding Door of the bedroom was stuck, we informed about the problem as soon as we realised in the morning, but it seemed not possible to come and check while we were in. so it was not fixed and no much of information received, Only when we wrote back to inform that it was still in the same condition, I was told it could not be fixed. it was not a big problem, but still I founded that before a new check in they should have checked and fixed.
Conveniently located in the center of Porto, 2 bathrooms and furnished kitchen in case of need. Get the keys has been easy and the indication provided were very punctual. Wi-Fi was working properly. Door that divided the bedroom with dining room was broken.
