1. This neighborhood is pedestrian friendly and I really enjoyed walking past all the little apartment buildings and bungalows on the side streets, listening to chirping birds, saying hello to area residents, admiring the buildings they lived in, each with a unique facade: pre-war Spanish, French Normandie, 1950s mod, etc. NEGATIVES- Didn't like the extra charge for internet or the extra charge for valet parking, especially when the tiny lot is literally outside the hotel's front door and it would be less fuss to self park.
