Actually it's not necessary to join Tripadvisor to get reviews... guests can review a place that is not there yet and TA creates a listing out of the information on your site. You have to contact them if you want to change the information they have or add a photo. Of course you can join in without h...

I suppose that they're looking for a reasonable way (for them) to manage individual owners. I have reviews on Tripadvisor for both my inn and my rental properties (all of them under the same name, in Hotels, since my activity started as B&B only and then added rentals) and I'm quite happy with t...

I suppose it's far too late for the original poster to use it (by the way, I'm curious to know if you did join and if you had bookings already) but I just want to give my opinion on AS.
