Any Airbnb listing. Short share links work too.
We read the reviews
Under 200 reviews we read all of them. Above that, every review below five stars plus the fifty newest. Then the fine print, the amenities and the category scores.
Get a verdict
Book or skip. With the reasons, how many guests said so, and anything to go in knowing.
Pricing
Up to 30 listings. Shareable reports. Enough for a whole trip.
Trip packs open when payments are switched on.
Questions
Why not just read the reviews myself?
You can. Most people read six and stop. We read every review below five stars, count how often each problem repeats, weight the last year higher, and check the fine print and amenities too.
Do you store the reviews?
Not the words. We score each review and keep only the scores: its star rating, its date, and what we judged about it. That way we can change how we weigh things later without reading anything again. Reviewer names, photos and profile links are never stored, and a report quotes a short phrase at most.
Do hosts pay to rank higher?
No. Hosts can't pay us, and we don't take booking commissions. Revenue comes from trip packs only, and it's published on /stats.
Which sites do you support?
Airbnb today. Vrbo and Booking.com apartments are next, with one combined score across sites.
I booked a 4.9 in London that turned out to be a mess, then found the one review that warned me. This is the tool I wanted that night.
