The WORST Rated Hotel In Dnipro 🇺🇦

🇺🇦 What do you look for in a hotel room when on holiday? A spa? A pool? A lovely comfy bed with soft pillows? Well there don't stay at the hotel Dnepropetrovsk here in Ukraine because you might be disappointed. It does however have a wonderful Soviet fridge called a Dneper 402-1 and a balcony you can't get onto just incase you want to jump of it at the thought of spending another night here. And all this for £15 a night. Bargain!

    Came to point this one out. Especially seeing as it's a windy place, it just makes sense to seal it through the winter to save up on the power bill. They probably haven't gotten around removing the sealing, it's early March. Bald wouldn't necessarily know that; I doubt they seal doors in England. :P

    Let me share my experience. I once stayed in a hotel in Paris where I could see the sky from my bed through a hole in the roof. Pigeons were gathering around the hole, presumably they where hunting the many cockroaches in the room. No bathroom, but a shared shitter in the hallway (yes, in the hallway, no door). I paid approx £20. This was before TripAdvisor.

I was on a short-term work assignment there about 3.5 years ago teaching English for 3 months and I absolutely fell in love with It! Wonderful, kind, strong, pragmatic (all at once=Delightful) people and in my mind, the perfect combination of the preservation of wonderful old Eastern European traditions combined with the forward-looking, positive attitude of the youth. And plenty of lovely off-the-beaten path Soviet adventurizing! :) Enjoy your time there- I can’t wait to go back again for a visit!

    The locals in the beginning interrupted him from telling yall the difference between letter Г (G) in Russian and Ukrainian. In Russian it's just G like in "Good". In Ukrainian it's the voiced version of H, so the word HOTEL transferred into Ukrainian as ГОТЕЛЬ (last letter is just the sign of palatalization of L, a Slavic feature). The voiced H instead of plain G is well-known as the special feature of Ukrainian talk across all the former USSR.

I refused and back they came an hour later with their tails between their legs accepting that I am the greatest hotel finder.
