Quick question for the Frankfurt regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?

I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard some crackdowns happened.

Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?

Cheers

Agreed on all points. Make sure to bring small bills.

How does it compare to Colombia?

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

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher.

Spent about $53/day all-in. Quality was above average.

My tip: go early evening for best selection.

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

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

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