About Expedia Reviews Spider
Need to pull reviews from Expedia for a hotel, vacation rental, or property listing? This actor is built to handle that. I use it to gather public review data, which is perfect for market research, competitor analysis, or just getting a genuine sense of a place from recent guest feedback. You can filter the results to focus on the most recent reviews or sort by what other travelers found most helpful, which saves a ton of time sifting through irrelevant posts. It also lets you set exactly how many reviews you want to extract, so you're not stuck with a massive, unmanageable dataset if you only need a sample. The output is clean, structured data (like dates, ratings, and full review text) that you can easily export to a spreadsheet or feed into your own analysis tools. It's straightforward to set up and runs reliably, making it a practical solution for anyone from real estate agents assessing local rental markets to developers building travel comparison features.
