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

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

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

I was there in February and prices were great value.
Spent about $147/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $89/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: go early evening for best selection.

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