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

Great report! Quick question — how was the ATM situation?

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

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience when I was there last month.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.
