This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Quick question — how was the Uber availability?

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $91/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: avoid weekends.

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

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $148/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

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