I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.
Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

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: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.
