Been thinking about visiting Hamburg and wanted to get the latest intel from those who've been recently.
Specifically interested in:
1. Current price ranges
2. Best areas to base yourself
3. Any safety concerns
4. How's the quality compared to the Philippines?
Any recent trip reports would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

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

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

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

Not sure I agree about that area. I found the outskirts to be better value.
