I once went to the doctor from hell. I wrote a bad review and while there was surprised to see so many accolades. My review didn't stay up long and more shining reviews were added.

@curiosi True. Once I was at a burger king and the waitress stood beside me and made sure I checked "excellent" for all questions. If I ever wanted to check "good" or "average" she would make me uncomfortable and persuade me to check excellent. I was too shy to resist. 😐 but damn that was so rude.

This is just what i do. I check a lot of reviews and take the average. You can usually tell if there's a couple of really bad ones that they were just unlucky. If there's an underlying issue it usually come through on many reviews.

It's important to know what to expect when you are traveling. I used to enjoy watching shows like Hotel Impossible, and Restaurant Impossible. In one Hotel Impossible show, the hotel owner would argue online in the review section with every single person who left a bad review but never tried to fix the problems. Classic case of denial.

Yea problem is with this is nowadays, businesses ASK for reviews in exchange for free/discounted services. Harder to trust reviews

@iamnikki True. I hate that business give freebie and cupons for reviews. I can remember when I started college and took a trip I thought we were cutting edge because we could print maps off of mapquest before going somewhere.
