This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

Been going for years. The scene has shifted a bit but still good.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

I was there in March and prices were great value.
Spent about $112/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.
