Pedestrian Friendly it is Not
I don't want to be a complainer 'cause this is a really decent hotel. However there are some issues that should be mentioned. First and most importantly it is not in a neighborhood where you'd want to walk anywhere. When we asked for cab service we were told cabs are slow to come to that area on the weekends so we decided to walk (based on some reviews that said area was not that bad). Wrong. We walked 4 full blocks before we were out of questionable territory. Bums and derelicts abound on dimly lit streets. The hotel rooms were nice.Clean. The floor we were on was a non-smoking floor but smelled like smoke. The room was smoke-free. Bathroom was nice with a modern look but lacked counter space by the the sink. Good free breakfast in the morning with awesome view of city from 8th floor. As long as you know what you're getting I'd say it's a great hotel for the price. ($75. on priceline).
