Thanks for sharing. Did you use a dating app or find girls through referrals?

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

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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Late night you get the best deals.
