Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were higher.

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

Thanks for sharing. Did you use a dating app or find girls at bars?

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in pre-COVID.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.
