Been thinking about visiting Cologne 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 Germany?
Any recent trip reports would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Best time to visit Cologne

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

Did you use dating apps or find girls at online?

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Quick question — how was the ATM situation?

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $147/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

Nice report. Heading there next month — exactly the intel I needed.
