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

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was above average.

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

One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Better quality overall.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More girls working online now.

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

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

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