i would add stars or sort by rating because when you sort by price, most of those hotels I would not stay in, either because of the neighborhood or place itself.

if you restrict it to 3 star ratings and up, you end up with a somewhat decent list of places.

if money is no object, i'd stay at the Hyatt or Palace Hotel.

thanks for the tips. The train is probably a good idea- except is it really a bouncy/bumpy ride? Beaverhausen May 2012 #23

It's light rail which is generally pretty smooth unlike heavy rail systems. Gormy Cuss May 2012 #25
