I'm trying to determine where to set up shop, if you will.  I insist on staying in Cleveland proper, and am intimately familiar with the area.  

it is central to most of Cleveland and because it is by the airport.  The coming/going will not attract attention.  I have never had a problem with Independence.  Many ladies hobby in that location.

I don't have a car, so that's the issue at hand.  Getting to Independence is going to be tough, but that seems to be what everyone else is saying.  

No car? No problem, I have one. Ride for a ride sounds like a good idea to me.

you are close to the airport - don't need a car--- and you can walk to restaurants from virtually any hotel

I'm using the Megabus, and coming from Chicago to Cleveland.  I'm going to pick up a cab from downtown cleveland and take it to Independence.  It's not that long of a journey.

But I'll give you a slow-clap for that lame-ass joke. ;

I would stay out of Independence because that is where everyone goes. There was a bust at an upscale hotel even.

That actually makes me feel pretty good.  I did some research, and all of my research confirmed that Independence is hot with LE from time to time.  Considering the uproar that's happening in Chicago, Im extra cautious.  

Seriously, the touring ladies that I have seen stayed in Independence.  I've been to the same hotel twice in fact, different ladies....

Independence for sure.  Nice Hotels and safe areas.
