I agree 100%
TA is useful-but an inordinate amount of users book via priceline,And since priceline books at wierd and questionable star levels this skews any"ratings"Trip Advisor presents.
(Full Disclosure)I do contribute to Trip Advisor as Bigguyinpasadena and I have not bookes a room via Priceline in over three years.
