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

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

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

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

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