Cute hotel but you can tell it's old. My room had an odor to it that my friend's room didn't. They didn't clean between bed and nightstands, it was dusty and dirty. I'd stay here again due to location and friendliness of staff.

Great location — a short walk to the French Quarter and trams/buses. The room was lovely; the bed was very comfortable. I really appreciated not being able to hear anything from other guests in their rooms, and service was impressively fast whenever I made a request. The foyer/bar/restaurant area was beautifully designed and relaxing to spend time in. The downside? Lots of light from the bedroom windows 24/7 and lots of doors slamming (highly sprung fire doors) with conversations in the hallways you could hear clearly through the large gap under the bedroom door. There was no extractor fan in the bathroom, and the water was scalding hot! Overall, the staff were attentive, it was a comfortable and relaxing stay, and I would stay again.

Extra $25 per day?

The facilities were nice enough. The housekeeping was a bit of a mess. Every day they would change out my linen, which is not only not eco-friendly but then they wouldn't replenish something each day. I was missing wash clothes, then the next day the big towels, then the floor mat. Don't take it if you can't replace it. My biggest issue was the "destination fee." They charged me an extra $25 PER DAY. This was supposed to be "free" drinks at their bar and the use of the Concierge -none of these "services" did I use, nor would they give me this money back. I don't understand why this wasn't included in my room fee, instead of added on. It just left a bad taste. The location was nice, but I wouldn't recommend this hotel because of issues like this "Destination Fee."

Very clean rooms and that means a lot to me but the service was subpar. The front desk was hit or miss. Sometimes friendly and helpful other times not. Valet parking was really inconvenient. Every time we wanted our car, we’d be told it was parked many blocks away and we’d have to wait up to 20 minutes to get it. Even when we asked for it to be kept close because we needed it again soon. The service at the bar was terrible and the complimentary drinks were terrible. If you’re offered a blood orange sangria- take a hard pass

This hotel is super convenient to the convention center. I didn’t give a five star rating because they didn’t put a blanket on the bed. There was simply a top sheet and I woke up at 2 o’clock in the morning cold. When I went to the closet to get a blanket, they had a waffle blanket in there that was Sized for a queen bed not a king. Had there been someone else in the bed that blanket wouldn’t have even worked. I’ve never been to a hotel that didn’t have some kind of cover on the bed.
