Quick question for the Malaysia regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard new venues have opened.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

I was there in February and prices were great value.
Spent about $120/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: avoid weekends.

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

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

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $138/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

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

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 8/10 destination.

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

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.
