Very easy to walk to everything but the hotel inside was very outdated and old looking inside. Our room was fun but the tv’s sound did not work and here was a stand alone fan in the room that helped with air circulation. Couldn’t open the window for natural light without seeing directly to the sidewalk Only plus is that it was in the center of everywhere you want to walk
