There are also places to explore near the reception, after the shuttle takes you back to the Marriott hotel, such as, Winking Lizaed, Flannery's Pub, or bars at East 4th street. Please be mindful; if you plan to stay and explore Little Italy, there will be no shuttle to take you back to the hotel and you will need to arrange transportation on your own.
