I was there in February and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was above average.

My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

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

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

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

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

Did you feel safe in the red light areas?

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.
