Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Nice report. I'm heading there next month and this is exactly the intel I needed.

I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has improved recently.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

How's the daytime scene there compared to the Philippines?
