Provide a brief description of Tulsa:
Tulsa offers a not-too-big population of 375,000 people, four mild seasons a year, many outdoor activities, beautiful architecture, the world’s largest collection of art of the American West, a nationally recognized Oktoberfest and America’s Mother Road, Route 66. Tulsa is also home to an abundance of restaurants and bars gracefully located within a plethora of stylish entertainment districts– all reachable at a not-so-inconvenient distance!
What do you like most about Tulsa?
Tulsa is a laid back, slow-paced city with friendly people everywhere. In addition, the city is easy to travel around which makes it easy to get to the many historical, cultural and entertainment attractions and events the city offers. It is also an added benefit that the ACE apartment is located within a short distance of Brookside and Cherry Street and not too far from our favorite watering holes of Kilkenny’s, McNellie’s and Fat Daddies!
