Did you feel safe in the red light areas?

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

Nice report. I'm heading there next month and this is exactly the intel I needed.

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use the local sites or find girls at bars?

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

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

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 above average.

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

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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

My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.

One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.
