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

Did you feel safe walking around at night?

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

Good info. I'd add that the late night is the best time to go.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.
