I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Good value overall. 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: Late night you get the best deals.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try asking locals for recommendations.

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

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

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: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

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

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in pre-COVID.
Biggest change: Better quality overall.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.
