Back from Japan. Spent 10 days, here's the breakdown:

Accommodation: Guesthouse near the action. $55/night.

Scene: Not as busy as I hoped but still good.

Prices: Slightly higher than expected.

Highlights: Found a hidden gem bar away from tourists.

Overall: 9/10 — would highly recommend.

Ask me anything.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 8/10 destination.

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

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

Quick question — how was the ATM situation?

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.

The scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

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

Did you feel safe walking around at night?

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

Adding my experience from February.

The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.
