Visited Brazil for 10 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is improved. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $62/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8.5/10. Would return.
AMA.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $92/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 7/10 destination.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.
