Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to use a VPN.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $62/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
