Visited Mexico for 7 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing fair.
Spent $143/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

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

This is outdated info IMO.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

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

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

Been going for years. The scene has shifted a bit but still good.
