Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

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

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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