A place with ratings but no reviews is quite misleading. Having written reviews will always help the new visitors.
Some may find writing reviews is time consuming (I’m one of them). Especially during vacation, you may not have the time to write reviews for the places you have visited.
Here I find “Your timeline” tab is really useful. During my vacation, I just had the GPS turned on. At the end of the day, just navigate to “Your timeline” and go through where I have been. There I can review the places and add photos easily.
The location may not be always accurate where you have been to, but the estimated data is helpful though.
