I agree with most of the reviews posted here. I generally work from home, but we recently rented a small conference room for a meeting. It was $250 per hour.. (yes Per Hour... no typos here).

I have lived in Sweden, Gibraltar, Mauritius, Dubai, Australia, Spain, Panama, Costa Rica, Serbia, Montenegro and the US and now recently moved to Mexico and love this city more than Mexico City and Monterrey which i also tried before Guadalajara. Its a modern and bustling metropolitan city with the feel of a small town charm and has everythin

Almost everyone I met has horror stories about being robbed at gunpoint, robbed by the police, and in one case even drugged and robbed by a taxi driver.

Beyond the security issues, scams also abound, and the covid policy is wacky, with hand sanitizer being forced on you ev

Cost of living information is very accurate, even surprised me :D But I can't agree with couple Cons. As mentioned in the older review, pretty much everyone speaks english, only some older folks (40+) doesn't. It's true that LGBT community isn't very popular, but I would not say that it's hostile. Lithuanians indeed are a bit closed in, but that's only till the first drink, then everyone becomes besties. If you struggle with making friends visit "Dzem P

Leaving soon to Spain and I cannot wait :D

I went to spend time bouldering over the sea, swimming and having pleasant walks around Marjan Park, which i did. For that it was perfect. The city is also a great place for a nice date and to meet a handful of other nomads. End of summer i feel is probably the best time unless you really want the tourists and the busy nights
