General Information trip report — 10 days
Arrived and got settled quickly. Taxi from airport was easy. Hotel was exactly what I needed.
Days 1-2: Explored, got the lay of the land. Found the local spots quickly.
Days 3-3: Found my favorite spots. Found my rhythm. The downtown area was the sweet spot.
Prices: $80-120 for quality. Some room to negotiate.
Tips: Book hotels close to the scene.
Return? Definitely, now in my regular rotation.
General Information — anyone there right now?

With respect, my experience was more mixed. Maybe timing matters.
