Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?

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

Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

How long did it take you to learn the routine?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2024.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try asking locals for recommendations.

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

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.
