Horrible, un cauchemar

J'ai réservé 1 nuit, et la veille il y a eut ce terrible feu sur Marseille. Les aéroports ainsi que certains trains étaient fermés. Je vous ai donc contacté pour savoir au cas où il n'y avait pas de trains si je pouvais annuler et repousser la réservation. Vous avez contacter l'auberge qui à répondu : annulation non remboursable. Je n'ai donc pas annuler ma chambre et le latin j'ai pu avoir un train. Je me trouve devant l'auberge, je croise la secrétaire au bas de la porte, elle me dit qu'elle va m'envoyer un code par mail. Je reçois un appel du patron qui me dit que ma réservation a été annulée. J'essaye de lui expliquer que je n'ai rien annulé, que je me trouve à Marseille etc..Il prend un ton très agressif et me dit : Madame, c'est quoi que tu ne comprends pas, t'es bouchée, la réservation est annulée et l'hôtel est complet. Et il me raccroche au nez . Je suis encore choquée de sa réaction et de la tournure de mon séjour.J'ai trouvé de justesse une chambre beaucoup plus cher. J'espère vraiment avoir un retour de votre part, au minimum du remboursement de la chambre

Auberge à éviter absolument. Les lieux sont dans un état déplorable : les chambres sont infestées de punaises de lit. Ce problème, pourtant grave, ne semble poser aucun souci au gérant, qui a rejeté toute responsabilité sur nous, allant jusqu’à nous insulter de "sales gens", de "clochards", et accusant les étrangers d’en être la cause. Son comportement est inacceptable : colérique et agressif, il s’est emporté violemment lorsque je lui ai signalé la présence de punaises dans les matelas. Il a nié leur existence, malgré les traces rouges visibles sur mon corps, sous prétexte que nous n'en avions pas trouvé physiquement. Pire encore, il m’a menacé de me frapper et de me jeter par la fenêtre du 4e étage. À cela s’ajoute une annonce mensongère : il est indiqué qu’une cuisine équipée est à disposition, or aucun équipement de cuisine n’est réellement disponible. Je ne prétends pas donner de leçons, mais je pense sincèrement que ce métier n’est pas fait pour vous. Votre comportement démontre une inaptitude totale à gérer un établissement d’accueil. Bien à vous.

Unsafe

This hostel isn’t very safe for solo female travelers. A girl I met in the hallway had an even worse experience than I and had to get a hotel in the middle of the night because she didn’t feel safe. Stay clear of this place.
