Returned from 5 days in Bogota. Exceeded expectations.

Accommodation:
Guesthouse near the main area. $67/night. Clean and central.

Scene:
Quieter than I hoped but still good. Prices were in line with forum reports.

Quality:
Better selection than last time. Had 9 encounters total.

Logistics:
Transport was easy — Uber/Grab works well. Street food was a highlight.

Safety:
Used common sense and had no problems.

Overall: 8/10. Already planning next trip.

Happy to answer any questions.

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $120/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

Did you use local sites or find girls at bars?

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.

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

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.
