Returned from 10 days in Brazil. Mixed feelings but mostly positive.
Accommodation:
Budget hotel near the main area. $79/night. Walking distance to everything.
Scene:
Quieter than I hoped but still good. Prices were great value.
Quality:
Better selection than last time. Had 9 encounters total.
Logistics:
Rented a motorbike for flexibility. Street food was a highlight.
Safety:
Stick to main areas at night and you are fine.
Overall: 7/10. Solid choice, will be back.
Happy to answer any questions.

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
