proper map that actually works not like hostelworld

We chew through review noise so you can spot the social ones, the sketchy ones, and the weirdly fake ones.

  • Vibe mathSocial fun from review signals, not brochure stars
  • Bug radarLast-30-day reports count loudest
  • Language mixReview languages vs city baseline
  • Sus filterPlant reviews and astroturf get sniffed out
