Hotel recommendations near Cali scene

Just returned from 7 days in Cali. Overall a great trip.

Stayed near the main area, hotel was about $55/night. Clean and walking distance to everything.

The scene is active. Prices were great value compared to my last visit.

Girls were varied — some great, some average. Had 8 encounters total.

Food was cheap and delicious. Ate for under $10/day.

Will definitely return. Happy to answer questions.

The quality there is hard to beat.

Good info. I'd add that early evening is the best time to go.

How long to feel comfortable and find the good spots?
