Elstar residence

There were a lot of noisy people. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Stay away.

It looks nothing like the photos, so run away! The place feels like an old hospital, and you may not find the receptionist at all. On the rare occasion he is there, he’ll be smoking in the lobby. The premises seemed unsanitary, with a complete lack of cleanliness and security. You’ll see people walking barefoot around the hotel. I think that gives you a clear idea of the place. Avoid it at all costs.

The only good part was getting out of there quickly. The rooms were alarmingly unsanitary: hairs on the sheets, writing in marker on the floor, and ventilation that whirred all night. I had insect bites on my legs after staying there. The breakfast was stale croissants and bread for €5. The “Manager” kept reminding us that he was THE manager and that we shouldn’t contradict him. He was vulgar and aggressive with guests, lied about reservations and tried to charge us for extra rooms. Prostitutes were at the hotel, and he wished them a good night’s work and, as he put it, “suck some dicks” in front of guests. It felt completely unsafe for a young woman, with men approaching you insistently and in a disturbing way. We didn’t finish our stay because of the unsanitary conditions, but the owner denied that and insisted we had stayed all our nights to avoid giving us a refund. Don’t go.
