Just got back from 5 days in Austria. Here's my detailed report.
Arrival and first impressions: Had a driver arranged in advance. Checked into my hotel near undefined.
Day 1-2: Explored the area, got the lay of the land. Took time to figure out the scene.
Days 3-5: Found my favorite spots. The undefined area was surprisingly quiet.
Prices: In line with expectations. Some room for negotiation.
Tips for others: Book your hotel close to the action.
Would I go back? Definitely, this is now in my regular rotation.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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