TripAdvisor adds tags informing users of hotels where sexual assaults have been reported

Travel website TripAdvisor has added tags informing users of hotels where sexual assaults have been reported.

The company said the warning badges are designed to identify health, discrimination and safety issues.

The announcement came after the website was accused of deleting several reviews in which users reported being sexually assaulted at hotels in Mexico.

Three hotel resorts in Mexico were flagged with the new warning tag yesterday.

TripAdvisor spokesman Kevin Carter told the New York Times that these badges will remain on TripAdvisor for up to three months; however, if the issues persist they may extend the duration of the badge.
