I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use the local sites or find girls through referrals?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

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

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to download an offline map.

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

Girls: International mix. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

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

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: Good value overall. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.
