Personal comments
A lot of good trips are organised to the exhange students: with 50 euros for a weekend in berlin, they really are value to your money. Night life in Bamberg is nothing special, that is, wouldn't be inf there weren't the wild Erasmus students! Kleber bar is legendary.

It is good to check up in advance which courses you can compensate in your university. Trips organised by "Akademisches Auslandsamt" are highly to recommend.

Course recommendations
Well, at German universities, the quality is questionable as compared to the Anglo-American system. Professors are pretty aloof and unavailable and the courses are generally not examined, so there is no good incentive to put effort in. The ones that are graded are done so with a long paper and a presentation, which can be difficult if in a foreign language.

Personal comments
Other than completely reworking the German university system, probably not. Having also studied at a larger German university, Bamberg was far better. But it's still the bizarre German system.
