Has anyone been to General Discussion recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers

Different experience for me. Prices were about the same when I went.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
