I've been to Berlin 4-5 times in the last couple of years.   Always have. a great time.
 
	I agree with the comments on the hustler bars, basically a waste of time for me.   I think I played with one of the guys in the bathroom at Blue Boy, but it's just not worth the effort.
 
	Lab on Thursday nights is a lot of fun every time I've been.
 
	I've also found a number of really good escorts, although they are top guys in town and charge rates more in line with the rest of Europe, so it's not a money saver, but I've had some really good times.
 
	Can't say enough good things around these two in particular:
