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

I was there in January 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 an agency I found online.

One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.

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

Did you feel safe in the red light areas?

How's the nightlife there compared to Colombia?

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

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: International mix. Quality was excellent.

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

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.
