Returned from 12 days in Berlin. Exceeded expectations.

Accommodation:
Serviced apartment near the main area. $61/night. Good location, basic amenities.

Scene:
Better than expected — plenty of options. Prices were in line with forum reports.

Quality:
Generally good looking with good service. Had 4 encounters total.

Logistics:
Taxis are cheap but negotiate first. Found great local restaurants.

Safety:
Used common sense and had no problems.

Overall: 7/10. Already planning next trip.

Happy to answer any questions.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

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

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

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

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.
