Do not stay if you have dust mite allergy
Pros:

I booked a room at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside from May 4 through 7 for a conference I was attending. In the reservation I made, I noted I have a severe allergy to dust mites, which leads to anaphylaxis.

The Tuesday prior to my stay, I called the hotel to confirm they could accommodate my needs, and I was reassured they could. When I arrived at the hotel, I was told they could not accommodate my needs and did not have a room for me, and asked to clarify what I meant by "Hypoallergenic."

When I learned this, I asked to speak to the manager on duty, and spent the next 20 minutes waiting to see if the property could make a room work. They could not. I asked if he would be willing to call another hotel to see if they could accommodate me, and he declined. He was indifferent.

I then spent the next six hours searching for a hotel that could accommodate me, and eventually found the Hilton Garden Inn. Hotel Managers at two other hotels tried to help me, but the manager at the Hilton declined.

They apparently couldn't care less.

Great Gluten Free options
Pros:

The hotel had many gluten free options at the breakfast buffet. They had homemade gluten free chocolate muffins, blueberry pound cake, bread and bagels. They also had a dedicated toaster for gluten free items. The remainder of the buffet items had GF designations if they were gluten free. It is difficult to travel with celiac disease, so I usually resort to protein bars. The server Claudia was super friendly and assured me the items were gluten free.

Housekeeping needs a good butt chewing
Pros:

The room was nice enough. Wasn’t here long enough to use any of the facilities or amenities. But what in the heck is up with housekeeping? This is pretty universal, not just here, but this was particularly egregious. I had a 2 PM late checkout. I had my do not disturb sign on the door. But yet they start banging on the door at 9:45 in the morning. Even regular checkout is at 11. how about some communication between the front desk and housekeeping as to who’s checking out when, instead of banging on a door that is marked do not disturb to ask the customer when they are checking out?????
