Current pricing for United States:
Short Time: Budget $30-50, Mid $50-80, Premium $80-150+
Long Time: 2-3x short time rate
Tips: Round up 10%.
What are others paying?

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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try negotiating.
