Visited United States for 12 days. Solid experience. Scene is active. Pricing fair.

Spent $121/day. Best part: variety.

Overall: 7.5/10. One of my favourites.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?

Good info. I'd add that the morning is the best time to go.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience when I was there last month.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try going during the week.

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were about the same but quality was different.

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

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