Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

Great report! Quick question — how was the hotel security?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

I was there in early March 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 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.

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were higher.
