Visited General Information for 7 days. Solid experience. Scene is as described. Pricing fair.
Spent $92/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 7.5/10. Solid destination.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $93/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

I was there in January and prices were great value.
Spent about $101/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.
