Disappointed that there was no door between the bedroom and main room, hinges but no door, that there was no view or light from outside since all windows faced a brick wall, that housekeeping cost extra, that the hallway floor had the same piece of dental floss by the elevator for 3 days, that the front desk staff knew nothing and were unhelpful, that the soundtrack for breakfast was the loud incessant banging of the air hockey game being played every morning, and the paper thin walls let me hear the guy talking on the phone next door, but luckily for only one day.

Cute hotel. Front desk day and night crew were very nice. We enjoyed our stay. The elevator broke wich made our 2nd night less enjoyable. We had to take the stairs and was on the 7th floor. The bathroom sink didnt work but was ok because the other sink worked. In a very very good location. Walki g distance to restaurants, convention center and riverwalk. Casino real close

Safe large room. Mostly quiet.
Other than the substantial “parking available” fee, everything went as planned. Breakfast was lacking in everything so I only went once in three days. Huge, mostly quietly room (wd 40 can fix the fire door squeak)

At the entry time the front desk staff was rude and not cooperative. We just checked in to put luggage and left immediately to see around. When we came back at 8 PM, I asked the same staff that the room heater was not working and the room was too cold. She literally didn’t pay any attention. Also, she refused to provide extra blanket. At 11 PM, I came back to front desk as the room was too cold. The attendance at that time offered us to shift to new room but it was a hassle at night. She provided extra blanket. This incident could be solved immediately as I reported earlier. This property will charge 48 dollar to provide parking. Otherwise, you have to find our roadside parking on your own. Their breakfast was outstanding at the property.

This is nice property very walkable to the things you want to do in the CBD and French Quarter. However, the real star is their service. Every person I dealt with at this hotel went above and beyond to give great service. Desk people, breakfast servers, even the general manager. Honestly the best service I have gotten in a long time. I can’t recommend it enough.
