We've discussed this before. Cliffs: it's a dirty, somewhat gross and not particularly safe city that, while unique in terms of the type of experience/culture and home of really good food, isn't elite and is overrated precisely when people claim it is. It's good for like exactly two days, after which I start to feel unclean. Proponents and locals are exceedingly proud of it, and hyper defensive of any comments suggesting the city isn't zomg awesome, which makes debate on its merits tend to be a waste of time. It's a really good, unique city worth going to at least once with serious drawbacks.
