Visited Romania for 5 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is as described. Pricing fair.
Spent $89/day. Best part: GFE quality.
Overall: 7.5/10. One of my favourites.

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

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $71/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.

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

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

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

I was there in January and prices were great value.
Spent about $129/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
