Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has improved recently.

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

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use a dating app or find girls through referrals?
