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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.
Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

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: More girls working online now.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls online?

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

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.
