Oh, this "hotel" is something. I've never seen anything like it.
I was going to the Gede volcano that evening. I had a backpack with a tent, a sleeping bag and everything I needed for camping. But that day it started raining heavily, and it was already getting dark, and I didn't want to pitch a tent in the dampness with the rain still going on. I looked at the website - oh, I recently stayed at a hotel for a ridiculous $3 - almost free! I booked it, came back, went in, showed the reservation - and they told me that their prices start at 150 thousand rupees, i.e. I need to pay another 100 thousand.
But what about the reservation? It shows 3 bucks for everything! - And this is all an outdated OYO app, it hasn't been updated since last month...
And will you give me a receipt? - We won't. You can cancel the reservation. The prepayment is not refundable...
The rain continues, the "prepayment" has already been made...
Okay, crooks, here's 100,000, show me your super-suite...
They showed me to an ancient "room" - quite spacious, but otherwise... this is unheard-of trash. Indeed, its real price is 300 rubles - for a roof over your head and an outlet. The pillowcase on the pillow is relatively clean, but the sheet, obviously, has not been changed or washed since the day this half-hotel opened, and several generations of guests have already died on it. I opened the bedspread and closed it in horror. I slept on the bedspread. There is devastation and dirt all around, absolute untidiness. Where are the regulatory authorities, why this terrible "hotel" has not yet been closed due to non-compliance with sanitary standards, I do not know. At six o'clock in the morning I escaped from this damned place, and at 15 o'clock I reached the top of the volcano, where I pitched a tent for the next 3 nights. That's where the beauty is!
Advice to everyone who reads this - do not consider this hotel as an option, do not be fooled by the low price - you will be deceived.
I will try to add a photo of this nightmare.
