And Sliver is also right that there is certainly an entirely different side to this story that paints a completely different picture, and the truth is likely somewhere in the middle.

This is all pretty ridiculous.
The entire idea that every story has more layers and
must lie somewhere in the middle is asinine.
Sometimes businesses just suck. Just because you assume everyone is a liar, doesn’t mean they are. It’s a weird premise to even operate under.
I also see most google reviews for almost all businesses are positive. What the negative ones usually are is more detailed. 5 star reviews are usually lacking in details and a thorough description. It’s also easy to tell negative reviews from crazy people. And most often the business owner responds and clears it up.
There’s nothing wrong with negative reviews.
