Visited Germany for 12 days. Great experience. Scene is improved. Pricing up slightly.
Spent $60/day. Best part: GFE quality.
Overall: 8/10. Solid destination.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.
