I was there in early March and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $80/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: Go early in the evening for first pick.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: Better quality overall.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

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

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.
