Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

This is outdated info IMO.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

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

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

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.
