I look at the hotels.com reviews a fair bit for hotels, and it took me a while to figure out the pattern. A really nice hotel will get downgraded a bit because people have high expectations. Meanwhile, a low-end hotel will tend to get inflated scores because people have low expectations. So the reviews are useful, but you have to look at them in conjunction with the pictures and brand of the hotel, because sometimes the nicer hotel will have lower ratings than the less-nice hotel.
