Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
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. 8/10 from me.

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

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

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

Nice report. I'm heading there next month and this is exactly the intel I needed.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

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