Tripadvisor...

Have been using this site on internet for some time -it's useful for getting an idea of places you're going to visit, things do do and see and for booking hotels...

This last month I have booked hotels through it twice and and have noticed something strange. In both cases the availability of rooms was always in the higher category but at a seemingly reduced price. This Saturday I was staying on Lake Garda, when I booked (through Expedia via Triadvisor) it showed only 2 rooms left in a 15 room hotel, either a junior suite or deluxe double -when we actually got to the hotel the girl on reception told us they had only just re-opened that day and there was only one other couple staying there as well as us!

Something isn't quite right here -I feel as though this is some kind of a scam....

Had heard rumours about some of the people's recommendations being faked on Tripadvisor but didn't expect this....
