Visited West Coast for 7 days. Solid experience. Scene is active. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $72/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 7.5/10. Exceeded expectations.

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

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

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

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $137/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.
