Langley Cruisers Posted February 26, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Just a heads up to those who may be planning their trip, or have already booked. I got this link by e-mail this morning and wanted to share. After searching these boards first, I did find that the Continental Bayside Hotel in Miami does not have glowing reviews on this board; here's your confirmation. http://www.tripadvisor.com/DirtyHotels?nl=MU&pid=1595 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueHerons Posted February 26, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2009 This is another reason I think Trip Advisor reviews are a bunch of crap. Firstly, the larger the hotel, the more people that stay there, the more people that will write reviews. Secondly, hotel employees write a lot of those 'disgruntled' reviews and they also write fake good reviews. Lastly, that is a really nice hotel and does not deserve to be listed.

Well, I was just sharing what I thought was useful information. Have you stayed there? When did you stay there? The reviews are awful for this hotel! The bad far outweigh the good. Also, if a disgruntled employee is writing a bad review or a fake good one, s/he's disgruntled for a reason and would make me think twice about staying there. That's just me.

Jenner9 Posted February 27, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I've never stayed at this hotel but everything I've read about it has been bad. Some of those reviews are from people right here on Cruise Critic. It is not a surprise to me to see it #2 on this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue, Your confusing the Hotel INTERCONTINENTAL Miami (100 Chopin Plaza) http://www.icmiamihotel.com/photo_gallery/photo_gallery.cfm with the piece of cr*p hotel Tripadvisor is referring to, the Continental (146 Biscayne Boulevard). I concur with your feelings about TA reviews but they're on target with this one. ;) ////// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
