Has anyone been to Berlin recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there last year and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Different experience for me. Prices were about the same when I went.

Also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

I was there in February and prices were about average. Spent about $50/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to use a VPN.

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.
