"I can't criticize the hotel it was perfect, but this downtown area is a bit rough around the edges. Great nightlife and food options and shopping but didnt feel that comfortable walking around with the kids. None of this was the hotels fault, they were perfect with lots of security measures. I would stay at kes suites again but outside the core"
