Atlanta

We spent a couple of nights at the Atlanta Marriott Downtown, a hotel we knew previously from the La Leche League conference in April 2006. I was reminded how the low-end full-service hotels such as Marriott are a compromise I’d rather not make. I’d prefer to stay in a lower-service hotel such as a Holiday Inn Express or Quality Inn, or go farther up-market if I can find a really good deal on a truly nice hotel. I also prefer midtown to downtown – it’s a bit less touristy, it has easy access to Piedmont Park, and the general variety and quality of restaurants is much higher.
