... Is certainly a worrying thing.
About three days before flying to Greece for our recent holiday I was surfing the net.
I typed in the name of the resort and the apartments we were booked to stay at. I didn't really expect to get any hits at all. I certainly didn't expect to find four. The hits were all reviews from previous "guests" of our apartments. The first one I read was equivocal, the rooms were a "good base" if you spent most of your time on the beach. The rest of the reviews got steadily worse. The words "filthy", "squalid" and "insect-ridden" leapt out. The worst review finished along the lines of "Never,ever,ever stay at the ****** studios."
You can image that my gently growing feeling of anticipation for our departure took a severe knock at this point.
Of course, the worst thing was that only I knew. My wife didn't have a clue...
In case you ever find yourselves in the same position in the future, I will tell you what I did tomorrow.
Would you tell your other half what you read, or would you keep quiet and see what it was like in real life?
