I tried with the filter but all results are a bit old so...

Stay around Mitte, I found west berlin abit dull. I was there last September and stayed near Alexandraplatz train station... Motel One it's called - good clean hotel and cheap too If I remember correctly.

That club in that power station was brilliant, other than that, I thought the place was depressing.

get a copy of zitty (print - weekly magazine) when you arrive. you will find every event in town listed there. (http://www.zitty.de/)...
...then I recommend a bar named kostbar in prenzlauer berg. great breakfasts there (till 5pm, like quite everywhere in berlin)...
...if you go to reichstag, go up to the dome, amazing architecture and don't miss the jewish museum by libeskind.- zitty is only good for the big things, the real berlin never makes it to zittyautoflavour
- where do you find the real berlin?uan
- as with any city, ask people. record stores, cafes etc.autoflavour
- i wasn't kidding when i said berlin.unlike.net is exactly what you need. also, first thing you do when you get off the plane is buy a 7 day BVG card for the public transit system. unlimited travel on busses, s+u bahn, trams, streetcars etc.dudebun
- a 7 day pass for the bvg. unlimited travel on the s+u bahn, trams, streetcars, busses etc.dudebun

do you guys leave your macbook inside hotel rooms? or you prefer to bring with you all day?
- I prefer to leave it home since it's a no-work trip...ItalianStallion
