旅途.感触

,

真的是一个漫长的旅途。

周末从慕尼黑到法兰克福,周一的面谈我感觉特别好,几位dame也是非常的友好,交谈得一直都觉得很顺利,而且那个公司也一直是自己想去的。但是谁知道呢,或许这就是人生?

周二算是休息了一天,准备周三的材料,祝自己生日快乐;收到了好多朋友的祝福。我的生日是中国农历的7月19,这对于德国人来说,真的是wahrsinn,每年的生日都不是同一天。guido说,德国人对生日是非常看重的,忘记朋友的生日,是很难以理解的。

周三从法兰克福到波恩,当天往返:Deutsche Post的大楼好气派,坐里面的电梯,觉得自己在飞;到达32层只需一瞬间,旁边就是DW德国之声和UNO联合国的一个分支机构。作为前联邦德国的首都,波恩有很多重要的国家联邦机构,比如说国防部。而在Post Power旁边的uno campus,更是有13个联合国驻波恩机构的办公地。除此以外,还有波恩国际会议中心和德国电信的总部。对于bonn,我觉得我只是一个过客,这个城市过于陌生过于冷清。

周四去汉诺威,德国人谈起汉诺威,那可是hochdeutsch的发祥地。比起bonn,汉诺威要大气一些,德国很多公司的总部也在汉诺威,比如说大陆轮胎,汉诺威保险和欧洲最大的旅行社组织TUI。汉诺威展览中心 (Messegelände Hannover)是世界上最大的展览中心,除了2000年的世博会,每年的CeBIT和汉诺威工博会都在这里举行。

今天就到了Duesseldorf,这不是我第一次来杜塞,所以比起其他两个城市,我觉得杜塞并不是很陌生,今天的交谈也很不错,至少主考官已经给了我积极的评价。谁知道呢?或许接下来的五个月,我会在杜塞?出来的时候,发现一个未接电话,是慕尼黑的,不知道自己错过了什么。周一的时候再说吧。潘潘学姐在杜塞,刚才给她打了个电话,正好一会晚上有时间和她聚一下。紧紧张张的一周,跑了大半个德国,还好德国并不大,而且有ICE,累并快乐着,或许我应该更加积极一些,更加乐观一下,有时候被拒绝并不是一件坏事,经历点挫折,人生才更加完整。

加油,坚持每天微笑。

Moments---footfrints in Munich

Just using these pictures to describe what I have experienced. That proves, I have lived and loved!





The Munich celebrated her 850s' birthday. It war a concert not far away from the subway station Frauenhofstr.



It is so called China Imbiss. There are several in Munich. I found it is O.K.



Am Sendlinger Tor.



An die Isar.





It is a church an die Isar.



Just across the IsarTor, and then I found this around so many luxurious shops, and so many Arab ladies with so many clothes and bags in hand.



Near the theater.

Liar! Midtwon Hostel in Prague, why not do something to make the world more peaceful!

,

I just do not know how to begin. It was really terrible experience. Because of the hostel, I may never go back to Prague again.

My friend and I arrived in the hostel at 20.30 at the terrible night on 11th July, but nobody at the reception, we have waited until 23.30, and during this time, we called and sent sms to the emergency call of the hostel, but nobody answered us. We did not dare go out side to even buy something to eat, because we were afraid that somebody would come and we would miss the last chance to get the key. There were also two Spanish girls, who had to give up their passports, because their airplane took off very early next morning. They had waited there since 20.00 that night, but nobody appeared. They were waiting with us together still very late that night! We did not have place to sleep at that night, just had to stay beside the reception desk the whole night. When we went to them the next day, my god, really. I just hope that could have made something to make us feel good. But they did not accept that fact, what's worse, one lady was very rude, and she said that " you are Chinese. And the Chinese people are problem people." She has no right to do that and to say that. She just hurt the feeling of the whole nation and the whole country. As a waitress, she should know the respect is the basic thing. And I said that I would call the police, and she said that I should save the time, because the policemen can not speak English, and it will bring more troubles to us. Then she spoke the native language rudely which made me crazy and sad. I was really hurt in such a foreign county, and I really cried, because we were almost forced to go out from the hostel.

I have contacted with the tourism Czech, but no reply. Which made me feel worse, they lied and it is impossible to get a simple apologize. I almost forgot it, until I got the bill of credit card this month. My god, I was almost mad! I have not lived there for even one night with my friend, but they got my money away from my credit card, even I have not checked it, because of their fault. I got crazy. How could that happen? I hate that hostel, especially their attitude and the way that they treated us. What did they want? At first, they did not appear, and we had no place to live. Then they did not accept the fact and treated us badly, and drove us away. Then they got my money away. I just can not believe that it can happen in Prague. I will not go back again. It was really too bad, to make me feel disgusted and make me crazy. I still want my normal life back, and I still hope that most of the people in the world are friendly.

My friends, it was my experience. I hope that I can forget it and begin a new journey, and to know friends. If you go to Prague, my fried, please be careful, do not have such bad experience as me, and do not want to go back to Prague again, just because of the disgusting hostel. Midtown Prague. I hate it.

My god, that is their reply. As the same at that day, they just did not accept that is their fault!

Here is our reply to that matter:
All the guests that day arrived with no problem and as you can see online we had plenty of reservations that day since it was Friday. Nobody from yours as well as from our guests didnot have any trouble with the arrival except of Peng Gao which is really strange. If there wouldnot be anybody at the reception how the others were able to check-in??? By the way, you can check it with the client David Hogg who arrive on Friday slightly before 9 PM.
Also, no text message arrived and some missed phone calls really appeared on the phone display but that was already after our opening hours, at 10 PM.

The only true fact on this story is that Peng Gao came the next day at around 10:30 AM and desribed that he didnot ring the reception bell by the entrance and just went with some other guests straight inside allegedly without finding anybody.
We are enclosing the sign of the main entrance where is simply written where to ring the reception!

If Peng Gao would really arrive on time and rang the reception bell as others did he would surely get his room as all the other satisfied guests. Feel free to test it anytime you want!

Best regards,
Midtown - Jana

And that is my reply.

I do not want to waste time to argue with such a liar. We called the emergency call at 10.00, that may be correct. Because we did hope that somebody would come. And that is also why we did not dare go out side to even buy something to eat. And what is more, there is no light beside the reception, so we noticed the call on the notice also relatively late.

And I should ask you, why did you not answer the call, if that is the emergency call? We called many times, and also the Spanish girls. And the call was free or busy. That showed that you have seen the call. But you did not answer them. So why? If that is emergency call, what is the function of it? And if nobody answers the phone, you just should give the phone call, because it is useless, and nobody is responsible for the call.

You said you were there, who could prove that?

All of the guests who lived in the hostel that night, can prove that you were not there. I have talked with a boy who comes from Malaysia, and a boy who comes from the states. The girls who opened the door for us can also prove that. They told us that nobody was at the reception, and suggested that we should only try.

And what's more important, the Spanish girls, who gave up their passports, waited there since 20.00 that night. They were waiting with us together still very late that night! And we did send a sms to explain.

Just let me write a review about the hostel, and I hope other guests who also stayed in the hostel that night, can prove that.

You were absent. That is obvious. I do not need much to say, and I will say nothing any more. The lady just should ask herself, why she did the wrong thing, and did not accept that, and wanted to hurt others. Especially, I wanted to say, the lady who treated to me rudely, and said:" you are Chinese. And the Chinese people are problem people." You have no right to do that and to say that. You just hurt the feeling of the whole nation and the whole country. As a waitress, you should know the respect is basic thing.

Another thing, my name is Feng Gao, not Peng Gao. Respect is always the basic thing.

Finally, I just want to say, you will lose everything if you treat your guests always in this way. Nobody will stay in your hostel any more. Just ask yourself in your heart, why you do not accept that, but you were really absent last night. As a human being, people will forgive the people who have made mistakes but accepted that. But the liars, should be punished. The fact and conscience will prove everything.

Thanks, and good bye for ever. Just let others know, that how bad the hostel is. Choose the good hostel, and make your trip comfortable. I was unlucky. Because of such bad service, my whole trip was ruined, and I could not get an appologize.

Good bye, and thanks very much for the customer service by Hostelscom. I just hope that I can have the opportunity to write my review.

Best wishes.

布拉格的Midtown Hostel Prague,永远抹不去的灰色记忆!!!!

, ,

布拉格的Midtown Hostel Prague,永远抹不去的灰色记忆!!!!

终于从布拉格回来了,憋了一肚子的气,不知道向哪里哭诉。这一次的布拉格之行,是我在欧洲旅游中最不愉快的一次。布拉格很美,但是这段关于Midtown Hostel的灰色记忆,永远也不会抹去的。

我和丽华7月11号去布拉格,去之前经过朋友的推荐,在www.hostels.com上订了布拉格的Midtown Hostel Prague两晚的住宿,预付了订金和手续费。

我们是晚上8点半到的那个hostel,reception没有人,于是我们饿着肚子等了3个小时,也没有人回来(因为担心之间有人回来,我们不敢出去买东西吃)。挂在门上的说明,明明是晚上19点到21点,而那个紧急电话,我和丽华打了好久,要么是没有人接,要么是忙线。我们也发了短信,可是就是没有任何回复!忙线,说明她是在用手机,可是为什么不回复我们!

昨晚跟我们一起等的还有两个来自西班牙的女孩,他们因为护照压在那边,从晚上8点一直等到12点,第二天,她们为了赶飞机,放弃了护照,而直接去了机场,她们只有把她们的地址留下来,让reception快件寄给她们!

订了房间,没有人接待,没有钥匙;而到了晚上11点,我们人生地不熟,到哪里去找宾馆?于是,我们一夜未眠,在reception旁待了一夜。因为我们在布拉格只是周末,为了不浪费时间,我们8点钟拖着疲惫的身体之间走去了查尔斯大桥。

12点,我们走回来,我希望他们能够给我一个满意的回复。

而让我情感爆发的就是这一瞬间。

我想得到一个答复,可是!!!!!!!我尽然遇到了如此一帮不讲理的暴徒!而且是妇女。

她们不承认,硬说,昨天那个女孩在待到了21点,可是我们是20.30到了,而那两个西班牙女孩是20点就开始在reception那边等!

她们就是抵赖!她们就是不承认!

接待我们的女孩子语无伦次,一会说昨晚的是她的同事;我说要见她们的boss,她又说,她就是boss。那个人电话依然是忙线,或者要么就是不接。

接着来了另外一个妇女,这个妇女真的是粗鲁到了一种极致!她首先是很轻松地叽里呱啦和那个女孩子说了很多捷克语,然后便吵着我们嚷!

她说:“你们是问题人!你们是中国人,中国人是problem people!"

在那一刹那间,我真的有一种打人的冲动!

我从来没有过在国外遇到这样的事情。

受了委屈,没有道歉,反过来还要再受气!

那个妇女张牙舞爪,说:”警察也是我们的人,他们又不会说英语。你找是自找苦吃。”

接着就对着我说捷克语。

我真的被逼急了,那一刹那,我有了从来没有过打人的冲动!可是我知道,如果,我控制不了自己,打了人,后果会更加严重。

我们是肯定不会再住在那里的了。第二天订房的钱,让她退是不可能的了。不要说什么赔偿损失,赔礼道歉,她们反而反过来侮辱我们,侮辱我们中国人!

带着一肚子的委屈和气氛离开了那个宾馆,觉得自己很无助,在一个陌生的国家,第一次有这样的感觉。我不知道自己还能够做什么,丽华说,我是太理想化的一个人了。这个世界哪有这么美好。那个妇女在社会上经历了那么多,怎么可能如此简单。可是.......哎。

从布拉格回来了,这段黑色的记忆永远也抹不去。我不知道改怎么办,虽然这件事情已经过去,但是我觉得,作为一个中国人,如果没有得到她们诚恳的道歉,我是不会甘心的。尝试去hostel网站上发表评论,可是不知道为什么找不到这个功能,尝试去找她们的老板,可是可能这个hostel太小了,根本没有她们自己的网站。

我不知道,我还能做些什么?希望听到大家的建议。谢谢。

So Bad experience in Midtown Hostel Prague in Prague, Czech Republic

, ,

It was really really bad experience in Midtown Hostel Prague in Prague, Czech Republic. I have already written a letter to Czech Tourism. I hope that they could give me a satisfying reply.

Prague is a very beautiful city. If there were not such experience, the trip in Prague would be wonderful.

It was really a bad experience about the hostel Midtown. I do not know where and how I can express this problem. My friend and I were really hurt by the lady who works for the hostel.

I come from China, and I am studying economics and management in Germany. After all of the examinations in this semester, I planed to go to Prague for a relaxing trip with my friends.

I have booked the hostel in www.hostels.com for 2 nights, and paid 10% for the room. I have written online that we would be there at about 21.00 on July 11th.

My friend and I arrived in the hostel at 20.30, but nobody at the reception. there were 2 other spanish girls, who were also waiting there to get their passports since 20.00. Nobody appeared that night. We did not dare to go, because we were afraid that the workers would come back, but nobody appeared. I called the emergency call, and sent the sms. But nobody answered. The cellphone was sometimes busy, so it showed that the owner of the cellphone was using the cellphone. But I do not know why we could not get any reply.

We did not have any place to stay at that night. We were new here, and so late that night, we could not find other place to live. We did not sleep that night at all, but only waited beside the reception desk.

We went out at 8.00 the next morning, because we could not always wait here. We could only stay in Prague for the weekend, we still would like to see the beautiful city.

At noon, we went back with all of our bags. It was really heavy, but we had to carry them. There we met a lady, and she explained that she was sorry. And I said that I would like to meet the boss, the she told me that the boss can not speak English at first, then she said that the lady, who was responsible for last night, was the boss. She called the lady, but still the phone was busy, and nobody answered the phone. I wanted that she gave us a solution.

Then another older woman came, and spoke with the younger lady in Czech, which I could not understand. Then she came to us, and said very rudely that the lady, who should be here last night, waited until 21.00, and it was our fault.

I really could not accept that. The 2 girls who come from spanish, have been waiting for the reception until 20.00 last night for the passports, and finally they had to give up their passports, because they had to take the plane back to their country on the early morning, and wrote their addresses down, and hoped that they could send the passports to them by post. And we arrived in the hostel at 20.30. How could the old woman say that? She was not here last night, and the other roommates who lived here last night, can prove that we were here since 20.30.

What is worse. The old lady spoke bad words in her own language, and made me mad. I did not know what to do. I said that I wanted to call the police. She said quietly, that the policemen could not understand English, and the policemen would protect them not me. It would bring more trouble when I called the police. I know that I was a foreigner here. I really could not accept that. Why should that happen? I did not have any place to live last night as a foreigner, and the hostel gave me no appologize, but bad words. She said that I am Chinese, and the Chinese people are problem People. She desecrated my country and the people from my country. I was really hurt. I did not know what to do, but left with tears.

What can I do? I have travelled in a lot of cities in Europa. But this trip was really so bad. I can not forget it any more. Especially the lady who were so rude and shouted to me. I doubted that she was suitable for the job, and she has no right to desecrate my country and my people!

We left the hostel with tears, and will never come back again!

Would you please tell me what we can express our complains? We did not have any place to live, and we had to be called problem people. What is the matter with this Czechic waitress? She has no right to treat a foreigner in this way!

Thanks very much, and looking forward to your reply.
