Just returned from 5 days in China. Great trip overall.
Stayed near the main area, hotel was about $48/night. Clean and close to everything.
The scene is busy. Prices ranged from moderate compared to my last visit.
Girls were varied — some great, some average. I had 9 encounters over the trip.
Food was cheap and delicious. Found some amazing local restaurants.
Will definitely be back. Happy to answer questions.
Returning to China after 3 years

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Did you feel safe walking around at night?

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to book hotels in advance.

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

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.

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

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.
