Thanks for sharing. Did you use freelancers or find girls online?

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

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

How's the nightlife there compared to Thailand?

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

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

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

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. Solid 7/10.

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was excellent.

My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.

One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.
