Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were about the same but quality was different.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.

Girls: International mix. Quality was varied.

My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.

Can confirm. Was there 2 weeks ago and everything you said checks out.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:

Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $100/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: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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