34 of 408 venues analyzed in Essen have had Google reviews deleted — about 289 reviews removed, with an average rating drop of 0.42★.
A deleted Google review is a review Google removed from a venue's profile after a complaint — in Germany, usually one citing defamation or personality-rights law. Google discloses the removal on the venue's page but never the reviews themselves. This page collects those disclosures for Essen, so you can see what each rating looked like before the removals.
