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

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.
