Mesquite’s visitor count for the month was down 1.2 percent from April 2016 coming in at 123,330. That’s 1,479 people less than a year ago who visited the city. That led to a decline of 4.2 percent in total occupancy rates from 88.5 percent last year to 84.3 percent this year. The av- erage daily room rate also fell 90 cents or 1.5 percent to $60.98. Revenue per avail- able room (RevPAR) also dropped 6.1 percent to $51.41. Last April the RevPAR came in at $54.76.
