Horrible

What a horrible experience! It was awful from start to finish. I booked a room at the I Street hostel. When I got there, they told me that the construction hadn't been finished and I had to go to the U Street capsule hostel. In other words, I booked one place and was forced to stay at another, with the excuse that “it's not that far away”. To keep me quiet, they allocated me a private room from Monday to Friday. On Thursday I received a message that they were removing all my things from the room because my days in the private room were over, they literally put my things in garbage bags. I found this humiliating, wrong to touch people's things and unethical. Their excuse was that I “didn't understand what they said”. It's very easy to blame the foreigner and say that she didn't understand, when clearly I was going to stay in the private room until Friday. They ignored me on the chat from start to finish. They didn't respond, the GOKI app didn't work properly. After all this I asked for my money back, which is very obvious. They changed my location, didn't tell me, ignored me, put my stuff in trash bags and blamed me for it. What did they do? They ignored me. Terrible experience, everyone said that the other hostel (due) is much better and the people are at least honest and decent. I still want my money back.
