...which just goes to show that there's no accounting for taste. Because Mrs H and I totally fell in love with the place. Far from being seedy, dirty and disgusting, we thought it was vibrant, lively and friendly. And as I've said earlier in this thread, we stayed in one of the so-called "rough" areas...the people couldn't have been nicer. If the city ever recovers, we'll definitely go back.
