Great Trip Advisor Posts!

As Heard On TripAdvisor, Ten Priceless Posts NEEDHAM, Mass., Dec. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- TripAdvisor®, the world's largest travel community, today announced the ten funniest traveler posts of 2007, as chosen by TripAdvisor editors. Many of these gems and more can be found on our humor blog, http://tripadvisor.typepad.com/.

    1. Not So Great Expectations
  "I could have done without the blood-stained mattress and the (actual)
  chunk of poop on my bedspread, but I didn't expect the Hilton."

  2. Rest in Peace
  "I spent the night in the (hotel) room and experienced a 
   friendly spirit. This presence got into bed with me, 
   an old lady, she was nice and I just patted her 
   on the head and we had a comfortable restful sleep. I think I
   will ask for a different room next time."

  3. Mime Over Matter
  "The neighborhood is filled with aggressive mimes, 
  including one sitting on a toilet bowl
 (how creative). Room cards are changed for no reason 
  and you cannot understand why you can't get into your 
  room. All in all it was a very unpleasant stay."

  4. Deep Thoughts
  "Time could be spent pondering over the meaning 
  of some of the many safety signs around the complex. 
  Out of the several we managed to identify, the
  two we found to be of greatest use were 
  1. Not to step on any crocodiles
  whilst bare foot, and 2. No ugly, or spotty 
  children to frequent the pool."

  5. Is That Really What You Meant?
  "I echo the sentiments of the previous 
  reviewer. The ambience is lacking to be sure, 
   but the food is like angels copulating on your tongue."

  6. Freezing Over
  "Sleeping in the street during a 
   blizzard would be better than staying at
  this hell-hole. The place should be imploded."

  7. No Accounting for Taste
  "Subject: Crab Trap Restaurant. We enjoyed 
  our experience at the Crap
  Trap. The food is very good with nice size 
   portions and reasonable prices(especially for the shore). 
   The only down side is the wait."

  8. A Sore for Sight Eyes
  "Food not special, and the couple that lives 
  there with their dog is very'homey' and 
   'folksy' types. Not for everyone.  The premises 
  are well kept, but some private parts we could 
  see thru open door were not."

  9. Leave It to Beaver
  "Imagine awakening at 4:00 am to the 
  sound of loud footsteps in the
  stairwell, only to realize that someone 
  is drunk and knocking on your
  hotel door saying, 'Beaver...it's me. 
  Let me in, Beaver.'"

  10. The Last Laugh
  "In fact, I told the management there that 
  I was putting a review on your
  website about their poor service and they 
  laughed at me and said go right
  ahead, nobody reads the TripAdvisor site."

"With millions of reviews and opinions on TripAdvisor, in addition to helpful travel advice, there is some great color, and these comments got the most laughs from our editors." said Michele Perry, director of communications for TripAdvisor.
