Returned from 8 days in Hungary. Great trip overall.
Accommodation:
Guesthouse near the main area. $79/night. Quiet area but close to the action.
Scene:
Quieter than I hoped but still good. Prices were slightly higher than expected.
Quality:
Better selection than last time. Had 8 encounters total.
Logistics:
Public transport is good enough. Eating out was very affordable.
Safety:
Stick to main areas at night and you are fine.
Overall: 9/10. Already planning next trip.
Happy to answer any questions.
