First time to Berlin. Certainly thought it would be interesting to get a taste of the Berlin Wall.
I thought the hotel had a funny name for a German Hotel until we walked out the door to figure where we were and realized we were right next to the main gateway between East and West Berlin - hence Hotel Check Point Charlie. And just two more blocks was some of the remaining wall and the home of the Gestapo. Settled in the middle of lots of not so pleasant history.
Berlin has a wonderful calmness about it. Not as chaotic as other major European Cities. And plenty of green space.
