Tried a double-wall tent vs a single-wall for my trip to Big Sur last month

I've been going back and forth between a double-wall and a single-wall tent for years. For a 5 day trip in Big Sur I finally went with the single-wall to save weight and set up time. Big mistake that first night when condensation dripped on my face at 3am. The double-wall would've been heavier but way more comfortable. Anyone else had this issue with single-wall tents or did I just get a bad brand?

Foggy coastal air makes single-walls useless unless you crack every vent open at night.

Milaprice gotta disagree, single-walls breathe fine if you set them up right.
