I had a night there last April. You can walk into town, but it is a hike. You cross through about four blocks of industrial area with nothing really there before you begin to hit a "downtown" type feel. I walked about one mile each way to go to Mass at the Cathedral and it wasn't a bad walk, but I wouldn't say it is scenic. There are a number of small shops and businesses along the way.
