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.

I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was good.
My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.
One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

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