Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were lower.

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

I was there in February and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was above average.

My favorite spot was an agency I found online.

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

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