I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try going during the week.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to download an offline map.
