Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

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

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to bring small bills.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.
