Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?

How long did it take you to get the lay of the land?

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.
