Puzzle - Yelp Reviews

13 four-star reviews were posted by Adam G. on his Yelp review page.

In addition to the Yelp rating (dollar signs), each location had additional ratings provided by Adam."As you can see, I'm a burgeoning Yelp reviewer. I have my own unique system that I use to review businesses, and I thought I might take a moment to elaborate on that here. Every evaluation criteria is on a scale of 1 to 5."".../...""1) COINS - This is how I rate the cost of a business""2) PIPES - This is how I rate hotels""3) TANKARDS - This is how I rate restaurants & bars""4) DAGGERS - This is how I rate safety (in this case only, fewer daggers are better) - @Glovers_Travels, 4/29 @ 3:26PM"It is worth noting that this post appeared two days before the Yelp reviews did (on 5/1).

The Solution
A clue was posted on Twitter to determine what is to be done with these reviews. "Another scroll from Elminster may help us in our search: 'That which you need’s not written in the stars; count on the aid of friends to help you out. If you look to the place of all the bars you’ll find the answer there without a doubt.” - @immortal4tress"It was discovered that, by adding all the review counts - the Yelp $s, the coins, the pipes, the tankards, and daggers - and then going to that numbered word in "THE PLACE" section of the review, we would form a sentence:

PLACE SECOND CREATURE AS CODE KEY THEN YOU START YOUR A BE SEE

The "...A BE SEE" is interpreted as "ABC", so the actual result is:

PLACE SECOND CREATURE AS CODE KEY THEN YOU START YOUR ABC

This is a reference to a elements of a cypher that became relevant in the Keyed Cypher Puzzle.

The Reviews

Napa River Inn - Napa, California
"While sampling some of Napa's legendary vineyards, I needed a place  to stay, and settled on the Napa River Inn. The staff was fabulous, to a one.

Castello di Amorosa - Calistoga, California
