Good info. I'd add that the late night is the best time to go.

I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

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: Prices have gone up about 20%.
Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try negotiating.

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience when I was there last month.

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