How long do you think it would take to walk from Englewood, NJ to Times Square, NY?
Q. I'm planning a trip this July to go to NY to visit someone. Unfortunately I'll have to find a place to stay out in town, but all the hotels in NY are way too expensive for my budget. If I were to find a better deal in NJ then I'll have to fly there. Could you even walk from Englewood to NY? Do the roads connecting the two places all have sidewalks? IF so, then how long would it take to walk to NY from Englewood? Has anyone done this before? And is that even a safe idea??? I'll be new to the two areas SO all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
A. It wouldn't work, because of the presence of the wide Hudson River in between New Jersey and New York. You would have to walk across the George Washington Bridge and then down Manhattan--it would take all day.
Happily, there are a variety of moderate-cost public transit options available to you, many of which are operated by New Jersey Transit, that will take you into the city.

What is a great hotel in San Francisco near North Beach?
Q. I am looking for a nice hotel in the North Beach area of San Francisco. We are going to the Beach Blanket Babylon show and would like to stay somewhere nearby.
A. North Beach doesn't have very many great [read grand] hotel options. There is one small European Style hotel at 444 Columbus Avenue just a block and a half from Club Fugazi

Another option would be the Washington Square Inn 1660 Stockton Street at Greenwich about 4 blocks from Club Fugazi.

A little farther away is the San Remo Hotel at 2237 Mason between Francisco & Chestnut.

I always suggest reading reviews for hotels on Trip Advisor. I've found it is the best way to check out hotel before you check in.

What are some of the best hotels for a family with 3 children for a stay in Philadelphia?
Q. We want to stay in a "safe" part of the city. We would prefer to stay in a moderately priced hotel, perhaps one offering a free breakfast.
A. Most of center city (the part that you will be in as a tourist) is "safe." Philadelphia is an INCREDIBLY interesting place (outside of the usual liberty bell, indepence hall stuff). I would suggest that you stay in an area that is close to those activities but not RIGHT THERE. My favorite little boutique hotel is near locust and 12th in the Washington Square West (www.washwestcivic.org) neighborhood. It is close enough to walk to all of the sites the city has to offer and it's REALLY close to the very fun and cool "avenue of the arts." The hotel is called The Alexander Inn (http://www.gayot.com/newhotels/info.php?tag=PHHOT03358&code=PH). The people that run it are incredibly nice and enthusiastic about the city that they love! Good luck!
