Has anyone been to General Information recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there a while back and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

First time was a learning experience. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

I was there in last month and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

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

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.
