Berlin (Warnemunde), Germany

Also, we had to have our passport to rent the bikes, so be sure to take yours. The staff speak English, so you won't have difficulty renting the bike once you get there.

 

Did they just look at your passports? I wouldn't be comfortable letting them hold on to them.:eek:

No - they retain your passport until you return the bike (very common practice in europe).

I can’t remember if they held our passports or not. Truthfully, I would not worry about it if they hold your passports. They are not going to lose them. (I lived in Germany for 5 years and had plenty of experience with situations like this.).
