The short answer is that it looks like:
for rating in review:
if rating >= 3:
print 'Positive'
else: print 'Negative'
but...
Your code looks much more sophisticated than your question
would suggest so you should have been able to figure that
much out for yourself.. Did you write the code below yourself?
Do you understand how it works so far? Indeed, does it work so far? What
output are you seeing?
Also are you sure TripAdvisor allow web scraping - you
could find yourself blacklisted from the site. Or they
may have a web service API for extracting stats that is
both easier and more reliable to use.
