100% agree. The atmosphere there is hard to beat.

Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?

Good info. I'd add that the afternoon is the best time to go.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try asking locals for recommendations.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in pre-COVID.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to download an offline map.

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

I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?
