Overview




The Review Analyzer tool analyzes and extracts review snippets from your Airbnb listing and your competitors' listings (top-ranking properties with the same number of bedrooms). It identifies key themes and feedback that are critical for enhancing guest experiences and improving your listing’s performance.




Why It Matters


Reviews help you understand what guests appreciate and what areas need improvement. By comparing your property’s reviews with others, you can identify strengths to highlight and weaknesses to address. This insight enables you to make informed decisions to enhance your guest experience, stay competitive, and attract more bookings.

Step 2: Analyze Review Snippets from Your Listing


Review the positive snippets to see what guests love about your listing. Highlight these features in your listing description. Look at any negative feedback and think about how you can improve.




Step 3: Analyze Review Snippets from Your Competitors


Read positive snippets of the top ranking comparables in your area. Note what guests like about these listings and consider adding similar features to your listing. Review the negative feedback and think about how you can turn these into opportunities.
