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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.
Biggest change: Better quality overall.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.
