In terms of local sightseeing, especially walking around to Doors landmarks, the RAMADA is the best bet. There is a restaurant at the hotel, with Starbucks and lots of shops all within walking distance. The Ramada is across the street from Benvenuto and around the corner from Alta Cienega, Barneys Beanery, Themis, and former Elektra Studios.
