How do you feel about rosy hotel reviews that turn out to be zilch?
Iridescent reviews on the Internet on the spot turn out to be horror. How to treat it? Is it possible to form the correct opinion about the hotel from reviews on the Internet?
For example, often immediately after a bad review about a hotel, a laudatory one appears above, with a refutation of the previous one. Who to believe? How to choose the right hotel?

In fact, everything is easier. You need to approach each review "soberly". Firstly, sharply bad or sharply good, they are swept aside immediately - so, for general development, read no more ... attention should be paid to reviews with an average score (the maximum and minimum depends on the site, of course). There is the greatest constructive, according to them, and you need to give a personal assessment. Indeed, all "sharp" can be the creativity of the hotel staff and the competing office.
Secondly, you need to clearly imagine what you want, not only from a particular hotel, region, etc., but also from the rest in general - what are your priorities (food, animation, alcohol, beach, excursions).
Thirdly, read the reviews, look at the photos and ask questions on various resources for objectivity, if the reviews are close to reality, they will be similar, like the rating of the hotel.
Fourthly, you should always take into account that you can’t please everyone, and our brother is especially picky, so sometimes everything is bad for a person, but it’s so bad everywhere and always, both in mega-expensive hotels and in economy options.
Well, and most importantly, when choosing and on the spot, be clearly aware of how much you fired and what you got. Mostly negative from those who, for three kopecks, went to rest in Turkish 3 * and expected caviar, champagne, etc.

I advise you to pay attention not to the emotions of vacationers (cool or otherwise boring), but to the actual description of the hotel. Your mood on vacation depends only on you, the company will be good and you will forget about minor inconveniences. But if the shower does not work or the beach is polluted, this is another matter.

negative reviews must be accompanied by photo evidence, otherwise you can write anything about each hotel without even having been there...
besides, for all people the negative consists in different ways. it’s bad for someone that there is no meat - I don’t eat everything exactly. someone complains that the pool is chlorinated - again, I don't need it. etc. Decide what you want and that's it.

learn to filter information! And it's not just about reviews.
everywhere there is a negative, everywhere a positive, it all depends on the person. We all have different habits, desires and abilities. someone is comfortable in 2 *, someone is terribly disgusted in Deluxe. from the reviews, you need to take only useful things: location, time of departures to the central parts of the city (for example), in which restaurant what is served, what is the price of a taxi, etc.
the rest you will not learn 100% from the reviews

In addition to reviews, I conduct active correspondence with people who have rested in the hotel of interest to me. I ask questions and consult. Never before has there been no response. And I myself am always willing to answer such messages with questions about hotels. So feel free to ask questions via internal mail.
Through such correspondence and reading reviews, I usually already know everything thoroughly about the hotel and come there as if I were at home;)

I myself am in a similar situation. She worked at the Daima Biz Resort hotel. On the one hand, there are a lot of negative reviews, but there are also positive ones. The sample was made like this: there are obvious repetitions in the messages, i.e. many who have visited the hotel repeat the same facts. Then I think it can be trusted. For me with a child, the main thing is a large beach and large pools with slides. You can find out about the beach in the description of the characteristics of the hotel. But a lot of people write about dirt, we will find out about it already in practice. There is also a problem with queues for food, many write that you have to stand for 30-40 minutes. But as the tour operator explained to me, this is a problem of all large hotels in the high season. But only they have big good beaches. The conclusion is this: a small hotel with a bad beach - no queues and vice versa. So the choice is yours.

I read negative reviews very carefully.
because in superpositive ones sometimes they are guided more by emotions
(like: the first time abroad - he is always wonderful
and therefore for some important (for me) things
they simply close their eyes, or they don’t attach any importance at all)
and from the negative "fish out" what interests.
Well, already from the negative I select "grains from the chaff"
like: noisy neighbors behind the wall or a half-day flight delay
Well, they don’t relate to the minuses of the hotel in any way, right?
and vice versa, when in a superpositive report they write like:
"the beach was of course far away and the sunbeds were broken
but we were not upset, we hung out with the animators"
this is a clear side of the hotel - and for me a big minus
something like this..
