Visited Tijuana for 12 days. Great experience. Scene is active. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $66/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8/10. Solid destination.
AMA.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

I'd also recommend downloading WhatsApp before you go. Essential.

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