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

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $84/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

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

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

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

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $109/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: avoid weekends.

This is outdated info IMO.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