Can the ladies and gentlemen here give me an idea of a good part of the city to stay if I make a visit in the next couple of months?

Often people recommend the airport section in their towns--but in my experience sometimes the airport area is a bit rundown. (I am not familiar with the DFW airport.)

So, any suggestions for a nice part of town, or specific hotels--someplace convenient for the hobbyists to visit me?

Thank you very much!
