How to Have the Best Holiday Ever
10 Things Seasoned Holidaymakers Do Before They Travel
10
Doing some online research before you book is a total no-brainer, but don't dwell on that one bad review. Everyone wants something different from a holiday, and there will always be people who find fault. People tend to write reviews in two circumstances: when they love somewhere so much they want to tell the world, or when they want to complain. You'll rarely see feedback from all the people in the middle. Be honest about what you expect: don't expect a 3-star hotel to have 5-star amenities. The major things to look out for are frequent reports of illness, complaints about rude or incompetent staff, dirty or unsafe properties, and bad locations. Most importantly, don't let someone's obsession with things that are out of the hotel's control (weather, insects, etc.) stop you from getting a great deal!
