Many travelers use review sites to pick accomodations, transport and so forth. A new study has found an inherent bias in reviews due to a herd effect
I guess that is true as i do look at the top 10 or so of accomodation in a city on different sites, so even me just reviewing them myself is a bias as i have already filtered what i'm looking at.
I think we just have to look for constructive information in reviews and try to ignore any that are positive or negative and i guess from the above, be aware that there might be perfectly reasonable and fantastic accomodation further down the lists regardless of the number or types of reviews it has received 😊
