This is an older hotel with a largely gay clientele. The first floor nightclub is the most active in the city. The local area is youth oriented and offers brew pubs, fine dining, ethnic food and a Dog Bar. We are an older couple and were comfortable & safe. There is music everywhere and my wife liked the funky shopping.
