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: More girls working online now.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

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

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

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

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

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 $80/day on the hobby side.
Girls: International mix. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Weekdays are quieter and better.
