I was there in February and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was above average.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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

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

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