Park Inn by Radisson Berlin Alexanderplatz

Great location but will nickel and dime you

Prós: Stay on an upper floor for a great view of the city.

Contras: Arrived early on our first night and even though we were staying 2 nights, charged 2 euros per bag until our room was ready. 8 euros total. Also the internet was not included in the price.

Prós: The location in combination with a room with view

Contras: The price of the WiFi use is crazy!

Needs Work

Prós: Location is great, price was fair, view was good and bed was pretty comfortable.

Contras: Room setup is kinda funky... The shower is open to the room with clear glass doors all around which would be a bit awkward depending who you're traveling with. There's a curtain to divide the room but it still weird... Cleaning is sub-par. Bleach stains on the floor never look good. Sink wasn't draining which was an easy fix for us but the faucet was hanging on like a loose tooth. Overall the room we had needs a good once-over. That was one of 1000+ rooms available so that might be different than many others.

I wasn't a concern of theirs

Prós: It didn't take me long to figure out that customer service was not a main priority. I had to ask to have my air conditioner checked three times before they moved me to a different room. It was clearly an inconvenience 2 the customer service desk to do this. They also had me pack up all of my things and bring everything all the way down 28 floors before they would tell me where my new room would be. It would have taken a lot less time just to know and put my things on a cart and go directly to the room I was being transferred to. They did not say sorry for the inconvenience or anything. I even checked out a day early and they didn't even say anything about it. It was almost like, they looked at my situation as though it was my problem and why should they do anything for me?

Contras: The fact that the staff did not care. The hotel is completely surrounded buy a square that smells like garbage and urine. There were protesters and police officers everywhere. Until late at night I could hear chanting over and over about Middle East War.
