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 decent 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.

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

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $80/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.
