Visited Dominican Republic for 5 days. Solid experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing up slightly.
Spent $60/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 7.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

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

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.

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

Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?

I was there in February and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $108/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
