I was there in January and prices were great value.
Spent about $105/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Did you use the local sites or find girls at clubs?

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.
