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

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

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

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

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were about the same but quality was different.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

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

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

Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.

Girls: International mix. Quality was excellent.

My favorite spot was an agency I found online.

One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

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