Reading the guest score
7.2 out of 10 from 769 reviews. With that many stays behind it, one unhappy or delighted guest hardly moves the average, so it is a fair picture of what to expect.
Its place in “Guest houses and B&Bs in Porto” is 57 of 63, ranked on score and reviews together, so a single perfect 10 does not beat a 9.1 from two thousand guests.
