2/10 Terrible

HĂŽtel de l'horreur

FUYEZ CET HOTEL !!! On arrive Ă  22h pour un sejour de 3 nuits et notre chambre n'Ă©tait toujours pas prĂȘte. On nous a mis dans une autre chambre qui Ă©tait extrĂȘmement SALE ( sol sale, douche remplie de poils de barbe). Pour vous dire mon fils de 1an lorsqu'il trainait au sol il avait les mains et pieds tout noir. -Pas de serviette ni de papier toilette, fallait les demander - coupure d'Ă©lectricitĂ© et le debit d'eau dans la salle de bain etait faible donc par moment pas de possibilitĂ© de se doucher - un gros cafard qui est tombĂ© sur ma femme ( c'est pas un sketch) - le lendemain de la 1er nuit, on decide de sortir et Ă  notre retour, on trouve notre chambre ouverte alors qu'il y avait nos affaires et grande surprise, des gens faisaient la peinture des murs. Depuis quand on repeint les murs d'une chambre occupĂ©e. - apres les travaux la chambre etait encore plus sale avec des traces de peinture partout et les traces de chaussures sur les lits. On s'attendait Ă  ce qu'ils nettoient et changent les draps. Mais rien du tout. Je me suis plaint et ils nous ont changĂ© de chambre - arrivĂ©e dans la nouvelle chambre. Un lit en moins donc 1 personne Ă  du dormir au sol, sol qui etait encore tres sale, j'ai du passĂ© moi mĂȘme la serpiĂšre. Franchement le seul point positif c'Ă©tait un jeune Ă  l'accueil qui essayait de nous trouver des solutions. Donc un conseil, passez votre chemin et cherchez un autre hĂŽtel car on peut pas appeler ça un hĂŽtel

Vidrigt! Minus -3 stjÀrnor

Rekommenderar inte till nĂ„gon. 1. VĂ€ldigt vĂ€ldigt smutsigt. - tĂ€cken hade flĂ€ckar fick lĂ€gga Mina klĂ€der pĂ„ sĂ€ngen och sova pĂ„ dem. 2. Duschen har inget tack. 3. Ingen tvĂ„l Ingen schampo 4. Handduken med flĂ€ckar. 5. Smutsigt badrum 6. Stop i dusch brunnen. 7. Ingen ljudisoleringen maskiner till vatten o ac lĂ„ter in i rummet. Även personal o dess musik hördes in till rummet. FörstĂ„r inte hur den hĂ€r kan vara 3 stjĂ€rnigt de e rena bedrĂ€geriet. Det enda positiva var att personalen var trevliga.

The worst experience ever. Starting with the condition of the room, the hygiene standard, to the disgusting attitude from the staff there. The only person who had a friendly and hospitable attitude was the guy who helped with my bag and room service.
