Parking is expensive but there is very little oversight so I doubt there are meter maids during this off peak time. Hotel was just ok looking and nothing like what Expedia showed.

Lovely hotel. Most pet friendly hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Only complaint was time it took to get help with luggage and car from valet. My room was very comfortable as well as large.

Great atmosphere!
My stay was awesome. There is no pool on site.Everything is for a price including items inside your hotel room. The inside lighting is horrible including the room lighting. The only major trouble I ran into was valet parking! My car wasn’t able to be found. After about 30 mins it was solved. But over all I give the stay a 7/10

SUCH a good location!!! Waking distance from literally everything you’d want to see in NOLA. The staff goes above and beyond even the valet! The bed is insanely comfy which is for sure important after a long day of walking around! And ugh omg the restaurants in the hotel are to die for as well. Those crawfish beignets at KING were a highlight of the trip!! Loved our stay!
