Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

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

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

I was there in January and prices were great value. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.
