I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: Better quality overall.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.
