“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, as in I’m never going there again.”

Recently, redditor u/ElisaBellooasked, “In your travels, which city was the biggest letdown?”

It’s like Vegas with no soul.

I never thought Vegas had a soul, then I visited Dubai."

2.“Hollywood.

If ‘who hurt you’ was a city.”

“LA is terrible if you dont have a local to show you around.”

“Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Not the falls themselves they’re spectacular.

The town is awful.”

“Reykjavik, Iceland.

I loved Iceland, but Reykjavik is very touristy.

The rest of the country is absolutely amazing, though.”

“Cairo, Egypt, without a doubt.

Anyone who hasn’t been: Just google it and the horror stories will keep you away.”

“Daytona Beach, Florida.

I was SO excited to go to Florida in high school.

There were cockroaches in the hotel room.

All the scummy touristy stuff.

“Naples, Italy.

A street in Naples

Rome had a reputation for being messy and smelly for decades, which I saw firsthand.

They’ve since cleaned it up, and it’s as beautiful as you’d hope.

Naples, on the other hand, feels like a slum for the most part.

It’s messy, unwelcoming, and doesn’t honor its history the way much of Italy does.”

“Venice, Italy in the summer.

I was there in February, and it was an amazing time.

“Las Vegas, Nevada.

It’s all fun for two nights, but we made a mistake and stayed for four nights.

Couldn’t wait to leave.”

A view of Sixth Street in Austin, Texas

“Austin, Texas.

For all its ‘keep Austin weird’ crap, its simply not weird.”

“Atlantic City, New Jersey.

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, as in I’m never going there again.”

“San Jose, California.

I think it actively tries to be as boring as humanly possible.”

“Dallas, Texas.

I cannot believe how boring that city is.

15.And finally, “Berlin, Germany.

The most unfriendly place I have been in my entire life, and Ive been to Paris.”
