Trip Advisor Reviews

I can get several views on the same place. A hotel's publicity material is obviously biased and says only good things. I can check the latest reviews - place could have got worse or better. Can also check back to see whether they just had an off day or whether they've been bad for years and never improved. The old reviews, and numerous reviews are essential because many people just say good or bad based on one bedroom or one meal, but if you read a lot you can find useful information, such as whether parking is free, and other facilities which most reviewers don't mention but maybe somebody a year ago knows of a seasonal event you'd otherwise miss.
