I am visiting Dallas for the first time. Can anyone suggest a good neighboorhood and a moderate price hotel?

Q. I will be also visiting Glen Rose but want to stay in Dallas and exlore it as wewll.

A. Since when did Dallas become the capital of crime? Geez.... there are so many parts of Dallas, it seems a little ignorant to group it all together. Its like saying that all cheeses are the same.

Here are some locations and possible hotels:

The Fairmont Dallas (Downtown Dallas)
Southfork Hotel (Plano)
The Westin Hotel Galleria (North Dallas)
Hyatt Place Dallas North (North Dallas)
aloft Frisco (Frisco- brand new)
The Westin Stonebriar Resort (Frisco- pricey though)

I live in a nicer area of Dallas and would be happy staying at any of these. Basically, to play it safe... stick with Highland Park/University Park area, SMU, North Dallas (635 between Dallas Parkway and 75.. this is by the Galleria Dallas), hotels located immediately around DFW airport, Plano (along the Dallas Parkway), Frisco (anywhere), Carrollton, Lewisville, Richardson

Stay away from: Harry Hines, South Dallas (Dallas Zoo area), Lower Greenville (its crazy on weekends), Deep Ellum (only because of recent unsolved shooting). Hope this helps!!

What are some good bars/clubs in downtown Dallas?

Q. Planning a trip to Dallas, TX in June. Staying in a hotel downtown, what are the hot spots?
I'm staying at Aloft Dallas Downtown hotel. I'm 21.

A. The bar at Aloft is supposed to be pretty nice. Or you can walk over to Main St. and check out the bar upstairs at the Iron Cactus.

However, I would recommend taking a cab to uptown (about 2 miles north) probably a $5-$6 cab ride. This is definitely the hot spot for people your age. Check out the Gingerman or Idle Rich if you want a pub. If you want a sports bar, try Frankie's or McKinney Ave Tavern. For a dance club, I recommend Liars Den. They have karaoke at Uptown Bar & Grill on the weekends.

Once you're on McKinney Ave, you're going to be able to just walk down the street from bar to bar until you find something you like.

Should I stay at Aloft or Sheraton in Charleston, South Carolina?

Q. I've read mixed reviews on both and need to make a decision.

A. hi there,unless you like the noise of aeroplanes,i"d select some where else,both hotels right next to the airport..have fun any way..merry xmas..
