I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use a dating app or find girls at clubs?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: Better quality overall.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in pre-COVID.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

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