Visited Central Mexico for 7 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is as described. Pricing up slightly.
Spent $145/day. Best part: variety.
Overall: 8/10. Solid destination.
AMA.
Quality in Central Mexico — trending up or down?

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 8/10 destination.

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

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

I was there in February and prices were great value.
Spent about $103/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

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 going midweek next time.
