Back home after 3 days in Egypt. Let me share what I found.
Spent most of my time in the undefined area. Prices were reasonable. The scene has gotten busier compared to my last visit.
Accommodation: Found a good hotel for $25/night within walking distance of the action. Clean, AC, wifi — all you need.
The girls were friendly. Not as many as I expected.
Food was great value. Street food was amazing.
Overall: Good trip, might try somewhere new next time.
Happy to answer any questions.

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:
Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

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

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

I was there in January and can add some detail:
Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was excellent.
My favorite spot was an agency I found online.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.
