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 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):
- 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.).

It is a bare minimalistic facility. Clean and simple. No body cream, very low shower pressure, not enough heated water. Breakfast could be better. But it is only $5.

Room was damp on arrival and improved with our occupation.
Selected this hotel due to proximity of the ProRacket squash/padel club, which is an easy 8 mins walk, as I was participating in a masters squash tournament there. Room was very comfortable and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Location was within a 10-12 minute taxi ride to the city centre, around 5-6 euros. Download and use the "Bolt" app on your phone ... basically same as Uber, service was excellent and value for money. Churrasqueria Amial, 5 mins down the road is a must go to restaurant.

No solution to a common problem in Hotels
The staff is amazing, including the two guys and the girl who helped us. Unfortunately, the owner or manager is nowhere to be found when there's an issue, like when the A/C stopped working. No solution, no fixing it, no changing of room. Just sleep hot and deal with it. Everything was perfect up until that point. Sad.

The area around is, well, ..., it is no the place where you sit on the balkony and enjoy the view.
The hotel is clean and comfortable, breakfast is OK, there is a safe parking lot in the backyard. The receptionist called a taxi for us, it was about 10 euros to the centre, it was fine for 4 people. The good side is that it was quiet.

Nothing to dislike at the price
Don't be put off by the area, this is a real find in Porto. 45 minutes from the city centre by the number 600 bus. The staff at the hotel made us feel really welcome from the moment we walked in. The place is incredibly clean, you could eat off the marble floor(not recommend though). The room was comfortable with a good size ensuite. Breakfast was good. There are a number of restaurant's in the area and a small bar in the hotel. Parking is at the rear.

- • Solo traveller

It's a two star place so don't expect too much. I missed a table to work, the minibar fridge is quite noisy, and the window opened to a small inner court that didn't let much air in. That said the air wasn't too bad even if I didn't use the air conditioning. And also, I'd have to pay 50% more and could still not be sure to not have any issues of this kind.
Very nice hotel. For the price I couldn't have found anything better in Porto. Very friendly staff (the receptionist ran a few minutes to catch me after I had forgotten something), comfortable bed, the breakfast was very cheap but still good. Wifi speed perfect. Also the minibar was very cheap. All fine overall. Not really central but 15 minutes bus link to the centre and other bus connections (even though being close to the metro would have been slightly better).
