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 last year and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Did you use dating apps or find girls at the hotel?

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

I was there in last month and prices were about average. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.

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

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

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