I want to visit Laredo, but Ive heard so many stories.
Is it really as bad as everyone says? Im an independent provider so I travel alone.
Whats a good area? Hotel?

Don't believe everything you are hearing.
Laredo has gotten some bad press due to the confusion with Nuevo Laredo, an entirely different city that is across the bridges in Mexico.
As far as area and hotel, around Loop 20 is good around the airport, and the north side of town along I-35. Good hotel, there is the Staybridge on the loop and Red Roof Inn just off 35 towards the north side. Both are good, just depends on price and amenity level you seek. There is also a Holiday Inn closer to downtown I have heard good things about.
Hope this helps you.

And everyone please remember, Laredo does have its problems like any other city.
Laredo is the number 2 city in the U.S. for land based imports from Mexico, and as such, will be in the front lines for sensationalizing the reports of problems.
Thanks to Al Roker, this has become major news and the resulting "news" programs.
A&E is trying to reach out and make money off of the drug problems with Mexico.
So everyone, please realize that not all these problems are encountered by the casual visitor to Laredo.
