Thank you TripAdvisor Sadly we are in the midst of unravelling the reservations for our six week long trip to UK and Spain at end of this month. Hotels and car hire were easy under normal cancellation processes, but the rentals are another story. TripAdvisor has been a star in this regard. Their Vacation Rentals website offers no nonsense cancellation and full refunds for bookings up to July 31,2020. And it works! Other bookings made through large and small booking agencies are painful, no refunds and they moan on about their owners decisions, only vouchers being offered, etc.etc. Bear in mind our flights are cancelled and parts of the country in which we live still under lockdown: uk quarantine procedures also apply to us so no way can we travel. Thank you TripAdvisor. I know where I will be booking in the future.

AVOID Business Advantage membership AVOID Business Advantage membership! Sheldon Davis signed me up after promising a link to our business website. After he took our money and got us under contract, our page had BOOKING.COM front and center as the main booking option! I was super clear that I was open to paying $94 per month to stop losing 15% commission to an OTA and he mislead me to believe that's what this membership would provide. What I actually got on the new page was a tiny line for "visit hotel website" and not the giant BOOK button that still lost me 15% commissions via OTA's. I called Sheldon over and over again - no response. I canceled by email within 30 days - no response. Niki Neidhart emailed me when the company couldn't charge my CC anymore and said that I owed per TripAdvisor contract and I replied no - and forwarded my emails with Shelton. On September 20th her email read "I apologize that the Business Advantage did not provide the results that you expected. Your subscription will become suspended and your Business Advantage will become inactive. Moving forward from today you have been cancelled." I thought that was the end, but I still get monthly emails that read "Final Notice - Payment Required. According to our records, the following past due invoices remain outstanding:" On June 5th I emailed John Saia my correspondence with Shelton and Nikki and AND HE TOO stopped responding. So now I get these past due invoices every month: June, July, August, Septemer etc.. It's ridiculous. They call you non stop to sign you up for a fake promise and then won't reply to your concerns, try to charge you monthly. AVOID PAYING FOR TRIP ADVISOR! Stick to reviews. They support BAD business practices that will loop you in for awhile.

Efficient tool Extremely useful website made by travellers for fellow travellers. A great way to obtain accurate information varying from accomodation, gourmets, tourist sites plus alpha depending on the reviewer. Useful pictures provided as well. Would like to see more replies from the reviewees. In terms of using the website, filtering options have improved, have found it easy to find what I'm looking for. I have encountered some issues (loading pics etc) though on the mobile website. Despite these minor faults, is still my go-to prep for travel website.

TripAdvisor is great!! TripAdvisor is great!!! When my husband and I travel to various locations they give great info as to the weather, gas prices, lodging, and what's near by. Great source of information.

Very useful and convenient !!! In the past few years I always take advantage of TripAdvisor to make my trip itinerary. That's because there many aspects of information such as hotels, hotspots, restaurant and so on. The information is basically based on users' opinions which include good advantages and disadvantages, so they makes the information more reliable. I strongly recommend TripAdvisor for anyone who have plans to visit anywhere in the world...
