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

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

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were higher.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try going during the week.

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

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

Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.

My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.
