Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try negotiating.

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

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

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
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.

My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.
