Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

I was there in March and prices were great value.
Spent about $114/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.
