The restaurants were crowded, and almost all day, so walking around was slow and frustrating. I also had the feeling that anywhere, not even in the hotel lobby. I know a lot of people love that place, and I can see why, but it just was not my kind of trip. I prefer quieter towns where I can slow down.
