I was there in early March and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was varied.

My favorite spot was an agency I found online.

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

Do your research, respect the locals, stay safe. — Berlin Bound

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?

Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try negotiating.
