I've run into some of this crap, too, while writing about properties. Had the same experience with one pushing heavily doctored photos that don't portray the truth. Unfortunately, I was writing for someone else, and the hotel got their way in the end.
I’ve stayed in some terrific and interesting places from your website over many years. I particularly remember a basic hostel in the suburbs of a non tourist town in Vietnam, a town only you had on your site, and a terrific, and cheap, little hotel in Hanoi where I stayed for weeks.These are the places that taught me to go to places not usually in the big travel guides and find what I really love about travel. I appreciate the warts and all because it lets me decide what I can put up with and what is important to me. I’ve stayed in places advertised elsewhere that gave me the wrong impression or didn't tell me what to avoid if I could. In the last decade I’ve been travelling in an area you don’t cover and often wished I had that sort of information available to me.
Really, really appreciate the honest work you do. Makes me proud to support you. Keep it up!

I used to be an entertainment journalist and have first hand experience with hot people get while trying to control their image...
The question is, will a crazed entrepreneur build a white sandy beach in Ubud?! On leased land of course
