What I wonder is how this is traced. If I leave a review ~6months after would my sisters bridal party be charged or the party that is currently renting the hall? I assume the later since they assume reviews are placed within a short span of time. Which then if there are several books one-day-after-the-next how do you migrate reviews? Or do you split the difference between all parties? Even if the policy is clear, and the market is free. There is no way this policy can be enforced fairly.

I would presume you'd be safe to leave the review much later as the $500 is withheld from returned deposits. Wait for deposit return, make bad review. All is well :)

    >> Yes but then you just pass the fine on to somebody else, which isn't fair. How? If the place has returned the deposit then they have nothing to withhold the fine from ... ? Am I missing something here?

      They're saying that someone else would be fined, if they're looking at time of review only. So you rent the room and someone posts a negative review from their rental a few months ago; do you get fined or not? You might if they're only going off time.

      >If the place has returned the deposit then they have nothing to withhold the fine from They have no way of proving the association of the reviewer and the deposit in question to charge from. Therefore it is logical to assume that any negative review would be charged to the currently active account, which may or may not be associate with the review. This ambiguity prevents a fair result.

      I think their point is that Yelp reviews are usually anonymous. So how do they know which wedding you're talking about? Do they just assume it's the one that happened yesterday?

  Send the bride an invoice, then send it to collections if they don't cough up $500.
