Thanks for sharing. Did you use freelancers or find girls through referrals?

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
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.

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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

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

Good info. I'd add that the late night is the best time to go.
