Something that matters to me is making honest reviews that recognize hard work and good service or experiences. I hope to prevent others from having a negative experience, and I want to bring attention to a business or location that others will enjoy. Because of this, I try and review most new places I visit. And if I notice that a place is lacking information or something is in error, I make a correction.
I try to review places a person would go on an average day - restaurants, shops, and places of leisure. When I go on my next trip, Iβm excited to make reviews for other tourists. I love thinking that I can make a difference in this way.
Itβs disheartening to read that some companies pay for reviews. Or that people so rarely comment or fill out surveys and reviews. If anyone has advice on writing really honest reviews, or the best way to tell when a review is fake, please let me know.
@Jenna_Race Yes, an honest review helps us to choose the best places to go.
