Managed to find an excuse to transit through Berlin and stopped for a night. Got to my hotel @ 23:00, ran up the stairs threw my luggage into the room as I frantically booked an uber and was in the shower at Artemis by 23:15 😂.
Now I am aware from many of my previous visits to this palace of Sin that late nights are not the best and some of the top girls go home by 19:00 ish. But on previous visits Friday nights were packed with girls - this time not the case as guys out numbered girls by a noticeable amount - perhaps 30-40 girls on shift - most familier from pre-covid, very few new.
€90 entry, vaccination checked, includes sauna and shitty food which actually seemed better than last time! However no cash machine as they were broken and they charged me 15% for cashback which seemed a bit much. Also, while a minor thing the steam room was out of service and combined did not impress me.
I was in the marked for something new - a new fake titted German-Turkish stunner was off handed when asked about services and just walked away from me - clearly a red flag. Opted then for a Moldovan beauty I previously punted 20 odd months ago she is a sweetheart very friendly (fluffy I know!) and gave an eye wateringly excellent BJ followed by a decent shag and a chat where she told me some girls are scared to come back or are anti-vax but there is no shortage of horny guys coming to Artemis.
This bodes well as there is really no other option for an FKK in Berlin and I imagine the lure of easy money will bring old and new talent knocking at the door.
For me, €90 plus €90 - €70 for 30 minutes and €20 for OWO - so €180 plus taxis so €200 for a shit meal, a non functioning steam room (sauna was good though) and a good shag is poor value.
On my pre flight stroll the next day Berlin seems to have bounced back well, apart from a few porn cinemas and sex shops closing and the odd low end brothel flat closing.
