Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Better quality overall.

Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was excellent.

My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.

One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

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

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to download an offline map.

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

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

Nice report. I'm heading there next month and this is exactly the intel I needed.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try negotiating.
