"Our engine has analyzed and discovered that 70.0% of the reviews are reliable."

And fakespot adjusted the hotel rating from TripAdvisor's 5 stars to about 3.5 stars.

Very easy to use. How accurate fakespot is, I don't know. It can be used for a lot of different things in addition to TripAdvisor: Amazon, Yelp, etc.
Having been to Amilla twice it is certainly better than 3.5 stars. How much better doesn’t really matter because I would just say fake spot is worthless based on this one sample (given TripAdvisor is a lot closer to the truth).
