Reading the guest score
1,554 reviews have scored this place 8.9 out of 10. That is a large enough base that a single rave or complaint barely shifts it, so the number holds up.
In “Hotels in Porto” it ranks 40 of 87, sorted by score and number of reviews together, so a perfect 10 from one guest does not outrank a 9.1 from two thousand.
