Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

BulgariaThere was no mosquito net on the window, so ... beware.
The room was properly cleaned every day. The location is very good (I choose the property because of that) - there is a metro station nearby that directly connects to the airport.

IrelandNothing as everything was top class.
The Boavista Guest house is in a great location to stay while visiting Porto. The metro station is only a few minutes walk away. It is close to the city centre and all its attractions. This is our third time staying there, and we will stay there again next time we visit. We had an early flight home and they obliged us by giving us an early breakfast. This was highly appreciated. The Guest house is spotless and the staff could not do enough for us. The overall experience was outstanding and we look forward to our next stay there. A nice touch was the complimentary glass of Port on arrival.

BelgiumThe pillows and the bed weren't to our taste, but that being said, we really like firm mattresses and pillows. Our neighbours also wanted to take showers after midnight a couple of times, this was quite loud. The breakfast was okay but a bit too much of sweet options compared to savoury.
The staff was so friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome from start to finish. The rooms looked really nice and we really like the terrace for a late-night cooldown.

I think there wasn't anything I did not like! The room was well-lit, well-ventilated, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was awesome and the staff always accommodating. I would not have minded to stay longer. The area is well connected and you find many nice restaurants and cafes in close proximity (10-20 minutes walking). Direct metro connection to the train station / airport.

United KingdomThe only issue is the upstairs rooms and terrace is next to a restaurant so on the final night there was a big party there and it was very loud going on beyond midnight. I assume this wouldn't be a problem midweek.
The staff were exceptionally nice, very comfortable and clean rooms. It is a little out of the way - so a good 20min walk into the centre and another 10mins to get to the waterfront so as long as you are fit, it's OK.

United KingdomNothing. The Boavista Guesthouse doesn't claim to be a hotel so I didn't expect extensive hotel facilities.
The first thing is how well we were looked after - all the staff we met were consistently friendly and helpful. The use of space is excellent and how it's presented. Our room itself was bijou but everything in it was of very good quality and very comfortable - fabulous shower for instance. I loved the ceramic wall art. We used the terrace which was a lovely place for some fresh air during the day, and especially in the evening before settling down for the night. The breakfast had a great selection, and they serve a splendid Vinho do Porto & tonic from the bar. Lots of excellent eating places nearby, away from the touristy areas.

United KingdomWater in the room on first day only - that’s ok but I don’t like dirty glasses left in the room which stayed for three days (we could have taken them to the kitchen I suppose). Also I don’t like my towels changed daily but left them on the floor on the third day - they were removed but not replaced! Small things really
Lovely guesthouse. 15 min walk into the centre so not too bad but two fantastic restaurants next door and opposite - the best in City. Clean, comfortable and a 24 hour helpful reception.
