Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to bring small bills.

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.
