While the staff, room, balcony, and amenities were great, I can only give this place 3 stars because the walls were incredibly thin. We had to call the front desk twice on our stay to have them go to a nearby room to tell them to turn the TV down or to stop talking so loudly.

We have stayed twice before and had a much bigger room, and better location of room. This room was small and on ground floor right beside a street- noisy at times . Love the hotel though and will be back. Staff were helpful and professional.

A spacious hotel room - clean environment and walkable to so many great places in the French Quarter. Free morning coffee was available 7-10am but no fresh milk only gross chemical creamers in those never go stale plastic pods. The staff was very friendly.
