When you go to a restaurant or hotel and receive excellent service, you might just show your appreciation by posting a review online for staff and future customers to read. The same thing applies when you have a negative experience somewhere and you want everyone to know your frustrations. A website called Yelp is one place people go to share their experiences.

Smartass...

"The staff was going all in... The difficulty level was way above me... At least meals were included." This was absolutely hilarious and we needed to read more.

We decided to ask people on our Facebook page to message us privately and give us a "Yelp review" of their time in jail.

We obtained reviews from jails in Iowa and Illinois such as the ones in Scott County, and Rock Island County as well as jails father away from the Quad Cities, like Marion Illinois.

Every review received a rating out of 5 stars. Surprisingly there are a lot of high ratings, but also to no surprise, there are plenty of 0/5-star reviews.
