Omfg Denmark, again 19.7.2011

Alright, so Denmark is the shit country between sweden and germany and probably it is wealth because they rip off tourists crossing the damn country. At least from border to border it is only around 300km so in best case scenario, you can pass it under four hours through motorway. Of course the minimum Denmark fee is 30e + 40e. That includes two bridge fees and only way to avoid them, is to fly over the country, which is very recommendable way to solve this problem. However, if you have heard stories that Copenhagen is very pretty place that its one must see place, and because of that your trip plan is somehow binded to Copenhagen (Jari will take a plane from here to Finland this wednesday), you are doomed.

Ok, back to road trip.. So we drove the 300km to Copenhagen and it was very, very boring. Absolutely nothing to see and radio channels here are only talkative, not much music on air. Yesterday we booked cheapest possible 2person accommodation from Copenhagen. Last time we took the Cabin Metro which was around 110e/night and was very crappy, you can find post about it earlier. So, we took this Danhostel Copenhagen Amager -place. One night was around 65e which sounded reasonable. The Hostel is located in same waste land than previous hotel and after awhile, we founded it.

So to the check-in and guess what. Chick asks that do we have our own bed sheets.
-"Well hell no we don't have why..?"
-"How about towels, do you have towels for your own?"
-"ää.. no.."
-"Would you like to rent bed sheets and towels?"-she asks.
-"well.. I guess we.."
-"ok, do you have our membership card?"
-"No we don't have, and we don't want to ha.."
-"Its cheaper for you to get a guest card so its only few crones more"

And after this conversation the cheap 65e per night room became to not so cheap 96e room. But

hey! At least we have fucking sheets and towels now! So, after getting the keys we were, again as usual waiting some candies on the bed but as you could expect, dear reader, we got none. Previously I was writing that was the Cabin Metro hotel a joke. No it wasn't, this place is a epic fåcken joke as you can see from the pictures. Of course now you can comment that "hey guys, stop whining, its a Hostel, it should be shitty like that". Yes. But we paid 100e from this! 30e would have been the correct amount. But thats the spirit here, in Denmark. Fricking hostell/hotell hell on god damn wasteland. Just wondering how expensive are those poshy places in the city center. I had better bed in the army for sake!

So because we were hungry, we took the metro which should have been 400meters away,

dunno what sort of ruler they used but it was around 1,5km away. Overpriced single ticket to town and searching some food. We took some Italian restaurant and the pizza was crap. And too pricey. Visa is not accepted here in every place, I somehow understand that in smaller places in Germany but in the capital city of great Denmark! Gimme a break will ya! Tons of different things to whine now but Im too tired to continue for now. Have to wake up around 5am and turn the car towards Sweden and Stockholm. There is a ferry waiting me.

One good thing about Denmark, with proper planning, you don't have to stay here even one night.
Oh btw! This place has 3 stars! Wondering how shitti is the 1 star hostel hell then..
