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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

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: More girls working online now.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

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

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

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.
