My
husband
and
I
had
a
bunch
of
happy
stays
at
the
Adina
Hackescher
Markt
pre-COVID.
It
was
always
our
first
choice
location
while
in
Berlin.
Unfortunately,
our
dreadful
experiences
this
week
have
ensured
that
we
will
never
return
here
again;
it's
a
shadow
of
its
former
self
and
no
longer
a
good
hotel.
We've
even
speculated
that
it
is
perhaps
being
wound
up
and
operating
under
administration.
I
had
cause
to
formally
complain
to
the
Adina
Hackescher
Markt
(email
screen
shot
pictured),
but
instead
of
speaking
to
me
like
a
reasonable,
paying
customer,
the
manager
never
bothered
to
reply.
Perhaps
I'll
get
one
of
her
faux
concern
responses
here?
There's
really
no
need;
your
silence
is
a
message
that's
been
received
loud
and
clear.
Your
time
can
be
infinitely
better
spent
by
getting
your
business
affairs
in
order.
Following
our
initial
problems
as
detailed
in
the
screenshot,
and
many
further
efforts
on
my
husband's
part,
we
were
allocated
a
change
of
room,
which
was
in
the
same
shabby
state
as
the
previous
room.
The
replacement
room
was
similarly
worn
and
grubby,
the
dishwasher
door
didn't
close
(making
it
entirely
pointless),
and
I
had
to
remove
and
clean
out
sludge
from
the
washing
machine
detergent
drawer
before
it
was
possible
to
use
it.
Why
is
no
one
from
Adina
checking
this
stuff?
It's
a
fundamentally
basic
level
of
housekeeping
and
maintenance.
When
our
room
was
'serviced',
all
that
happened
was
that
our
bedding
was
straightened,
bins
were
emptied,
and
the
toilet
roll
was
folded
into
a
point.
The
carpet
was
not
vacuumed,
the
toilet
was
not
cleaned,
and
surfaces
were
not
wiped.
I
don't
know
whether
the
housekeeping
staff
here
are
too
few,
or
simply
inept,
but
the
bathrooms
look
as
if
they've
been
sponsored
by
limescale
and
mildew,
and
even
in
the
common
areas
of
the
hotel,
you
can
see
ring
marks
on
surfaces
and
lots
of
debris
on
carpets.
None
of
the
standard
housekeeping
tasks
are
in
hand.
All
of
the
carpets
in
this
hotel
need
to
be
professionally
cleaned
and
the
rooms
need
a
robust
deep
cleaning
and
maintenance
rota.
These
are
*visibly*
not
areas
that
have
been
prioritised
by
the
Adina
group
and
to
expect
any
paying
guest
to
tolerate
this
is
frankly
disgusting.
We've
now
gone
from
being
repeat
customers
(both
in
this
Adina
location
and
other
Adina
locations),
to
disappointed
ex
Adina
customers
who
will
spend
our
money
elsewhere
in
future,
with
another
hotel
chain.
The
low
quality
of
your
hotel
did
that,
Annette.
Isn't
that
dreadful?
Prior
to
our
stay,
my
husband's
credit
card
was
charged
twice
and
he
had
to
contact
the
hotel
*with
evidence*
to
get
the
second
charge
refunded.
All
round,
this
has
been
an
absolute
slam-dunk
of
a
lousy
experience.
