Google Reviews

I’m not sure if you write reviews on Google for places you’ve visited both at home and abroad, but it would appear the AI algorithm used to check the content has some very strange rules. I’ll provide two examples:

The first is my review of Avenida station in Lisbon, in which I said that “Avenida is on the Blue Line and is one stop north of Restauradores.” This was referred back to me by Google as not meeting their guidelines. I played around with the text and found that the problem was with the words ‘Blue Line’. I referred to ‘Blue Line’ as that’s the colour the line has on the maps.

The second is my review of the St Roch church in Lisbon. I wrote that ‘after the austerity of Alcobaca, this is a reminder of the wealth of The Jesuits’. Again this was referred back to me as it didn’t meet the guidelines. I played around with the text, thinking the wealth of the Jesuits had caused the problem, but no it was the ‘austerity of Alcobaca’ that I had to remove before the AI algorithm would accept it.
