Decision summary

Pick the room whose location, restriction and cancellation terms fit your trip first, then compare totals. A lower observed room price does not mean lower quality, and a higher one does not mean better. Reconfirm the exact room, board, terms and any local charges with the provider before booking; final bills and future availability are not verified.

Six-night hotel samples are a comparison baseline, not a required trip length. All food, mobility and activity allowances must remain labeled estimates. Recheck room terms before booking.

How long should I allow? About 3 days for this city scope, adjusted to your pace; the six-night price baseline is separate.
