Spent $71/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8.5/10. Exceeded expectations.

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $79/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

I was there in February and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $90/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
