Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

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

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

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

This is outdated info IMO.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

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $100/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
