Accueil Hotel Besançon

I left after five minutes, and I’m glad I never brought my luggage inside. The place was dirty and smelled awful, and I worried I might take bugs home with me. My manager had booked it for me. I already had a bad feeling when I parked outside. I can’t imagine what condition the breakfast is prepared in. This place shouldn’t be allowed to stay open.

The room was unbearably hot in early May, and we couldn’t sleep. The beds hadn’t all been made, and the mattresses were really uncomfortable. There were dead flies and hair in the room, plus rust and dust all over the bathroom and a black shower head. The only water in the room was hot. I’d sooner sleep in my car than spend another night here.

The whole building smelled of cigarettes. In the room, the sink stank and had hair in it, the toilet looked like something from a jail and had a broken flush, and there weren’t any towels. Apart from changing the sheets, it seemed like nothing had been done after the last guest left. This is probably the worst accommodation I’ve paid for in Europe, maybe anywhere. Don’t stay here unless you’re desperate or want a dirty adventure.

There were no towels during our stay, and the air conditioning wasn’t working either.
