Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near the French Quarter, offering clean and well-equipped rooms perfect for extended stays. The location strikes a great balance, close to top attractions but away from loud disturbances. The dining options were limited but satisfactory. Overall, a solid choice for a comfortable stay with good value for money.
The hotel was conveniently located within walking distance of the French Quarter, making it easy to explore the area. The service was friendly and accommodating, despite some limitations in the level of service provided. The dining options were basic but included a waffle station for a nice touch. The rooms, however, left much to be desired with a lack of amenities and some unpleasant smells.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and modern but unfortunately not clean upon arrival and had issues with temperature control. The service was generally friendly and attentive, although there were a few instances of unwelcoming behavior. The location was convenient, being close to popular areas but also away from noisy streets. The dining was generally good with fresh and delicious options. The facilities were sufficient but could use some improvement.
