Back from General Information. Spent 6 days, here's the breakdown:
Accommodation: Mid-range hotel near the action. $38/night.
Scene: Not as busy as I hoped but still good.
Prices: Slightly higher than expected.
Highlights: The nightlife area was incredible.
Overall: 9/10 — would highly recommend.
Ask me anything.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 7/10 destination.
