I was there in February and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $65/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: avoid weekends.

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

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

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

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