My husband and I had a great weekend of opera, symphony, and art museums. Ray's place was less than a mile walk to all of these. There's a steep hill to climb to get to these venues, but check out Angel's flight, a tram that goes to the top of the hill! Was noisy one night - but what you'd expect in a downtown location. Building has 24/7 security. Very convenient parking just behind the building for $13/day. Seemed secure. Ray's a sweetheart. Very accommodating.
