Dallas Question.

[dandantmm]

My friend and I are planning on riding down to Dallas for the International Motorcycle Show in November. We will be coming from Memphis and I was trying to figure out where to stay. The last time we went through that area we stayed in Greenville and took the two lane around the city. I didn't want to be out that far from the convention center. Where is a nice "safe" area of Dallas that would be good to find a hotel that is a little closer to downtown?
