Model Helena Christensen had to leave a new eco-friendly hotel in Rome because of the state of the toilets.
Christensen, 41, was the first guest at the new hotel, which has been built out of rubbish found on beaches across Europe as part of Corona’s Save The Beach Campaign.
The hotel doesn’t have chemical toilets or showers and has only a ripped sheet as curtains.
Christensen, an environmental activist herself, checked in to the Trash Hotel but couldn’t stay a full night.
She said to UK newspaper Daily Express: “I am not too squeamish but I couldn’t stomach a Portaloo when nature called. I was the first guest to check in.
“The bed was made from wood and bits of concrete, the walls covered with an exhaust, tyres, plastic bottles and other rubbish that people had left behind on beaches.
“There were only five rooms so it was very friendly. I am disgusted by the way people drop rubbish all over our beautiful beaches. But I bailed out in the early hours when I saw the toilet.”
The model added: “I hope I’ve made my point but I didn’t want to start training for festival toilets. I’d rather go behind a tree than in a Portaloo – they’re horrible.”
