" I browse with caution. And often bemusement at the tiny, nitpicking things people rant about. For example, the last hotel i stayed in, from what people were saying you wouldn't touch it with a barge pole . Yet it turned out to be superb, even better than my expectations upon selecting it. Already booked for a return trip. Most of what people ranted about simple wasn't in evidence. " This is why i take a lot of what is said on it with a pinch of salt, i swear some people go to a 3 star hotel and expect 5 star service | |||

"I use the ice skating system of scoring. I ignore the best revue (probably written by the hotel) And the worst (probably written by the hotel next door) I ignore the moans about no tea making facilities in med hotels which never provide these and the gripes about no nightlife in resorts described as quiet and vice versa. At the very least, some of the reports are very entertaining. " Good plan.  | |||

"I use it but discount places with just a few re_iews (possibly by staff) and make sure I read to see what people are raving/ranting about - some people love being near the nightlife, others hate the noise for example. There's a restaurant in Sheffield which has some very poor scores but when you read the re_iews it's because the portions are enormous and people are complaining about waste. Which means it's a restaurant to go to with a big appetite!" There are a few restaurants in Sheffield that are looking at getting together to sue trip advisor because it is used by other businesses to leave fake re_iews. | |||

"We use tripadvisor like we use verifications on here ......." Surely you don't mean that some verifications are not strictly true? 
I am shocked. | |||

"We use tripadvisor like we use verifications on here .......you collect them? "No we read them, read between the lines, sprinkle with salt and make our own minds up. | |||

"As a "host" you try your best. We go out if our way to make their holiday brilliant! But when you ask for a re_iew it doesn't happen! The fact we give a welcome pack which includes wine, water, beer, tea, coffee, filter coffee, sugar, milk, beach towels & tourist tax - nothing! So very disappointing!" Do you feel that a re_iew should be compulsory? | |||

Sorry, tourist tax? x" Everyone who visits has to pay a daily tax (13& over) this would be a charge levied when you check out - we absorb it - currently 1.05€ pp | |||

"We only leave positive re_iews on the whole. We have left 1 negative re_iew- all the other re_iews were positive but this place was a total dive I don't understand how they can have do many positive re_iews. The sheets on the bed were filfy. We left out of pocket as we had paid in advance" Would be our worst nightmare - we steam clean every time to make sure it's perfect. New pillows every year, decorate every year as the saying goes " you don't get a 2nd chance to create a first impression"! | |||
