"I felt like it was not the sort of place you go to alone" is most natural. Or, "It didn't seem like the sort of place you should go to alone."
場所へ行く = Go to a place
行く場所へ = A place you go to
Make sure to add the "to" after "go"! Otherwise it's ungrammatical.

This feels natural in writing, but not in spoken language. Spoken might be "I didn't feel like I should go there alone." Or maybe "That place didn't feel like somewhere you'd go alone."
