Reading the guest score
7.1 out of 10 from 2,127 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.
27 of 27 in “Hostels in Porto”, ordered by score and review count together, so one guest's perfect 10 cannot outrank a 9.1 earned over two thousand reviews.
