  Though Internet is full of good or bad reviews of hotels and the sites where they appear claims they are unbiased and posted by real travelers. But, the fact is that they may not be real and posted by hoteliers to boost business. Even if they are real, many times, it is possible that they may not be providing actual picture. I have recently stumbled upon this website http://www.hotelly.com/Se arch/HomePage.aspx?aid=6 which actually features video reviews of hotels across the world. These, I believe, are more trustworthy because When you view video reviews, you watch that is real and you trust. Travelers would shoot what they see; even hoteliers would avoid uploading unreal videos.
