No wifi in room and my 100 dollars deposit was not refunded back to my account.
Pros:

It was close to cruise terminal

Cons:

They take my 100 dollar deposit and says it will revert back to my account in 2-3 working days but i still haven’t got and they are not replying me on this booking app now . They refuse to take cash for deposit which they can easily give me back on my check out . Also the wifi was not working at all in the room. U have to come down to the lobby to use it

Horrible staff. Motel like rooms
Pros:

Front desk had horrible attitudes, never experienced this in New Orleans and we travel very frequently here. The location was far from the strip and made it even worse of an experience when nothing in our bathroom worked and we got told just to close the door and we’d be woken up at 7am whenever maintenance comes in. For it to be a FULLY BOOKED hotel and for you to have ONE employee whom also has no access to any other help for emergencies. Never ever have we had bad experiences in New Orleans till this place. Don’t waste your time.

Save your money
Pros:

The room 306 was buried in a back side hallway in between the ice machine and a maintenance closet... Two 18 inch "windows" looked out on an air shaft with nothing to be seen. There wasn't a shower curtain and the toilet was the perfect height for a 3 year old. Considering the maid was soooo sweet and looked embarrassed so I didn't fuss. Next time I'll spend a bit more for the stay, and not get a room that could be in a horror movie!

Cons:

Every single thing...

The French Quarter was great - pity the hotel did not match our experience
Pros:

Check in

Cons:

Not enough space here but here are the main points -
- Wifi never worked
- Parking was Valet only at $45 a day
- Shower was useless - just trickled
- Tried to change dates too - no empathy - and they refused.
- The only food was an expensive cafe
- And cleaning was by request - not really acceptable for this standard of hotel

Pros:

La posizione della struttura è il suo punto di forza, vicinissima al Quartiere Francese e a tutti i principali punti d'interesse

Cons:

Purtroppo l'hotel è un po' fatiscente, avrebbe bisogno di una ristrutturazione specialmente sulla facciata. Noi eravamo al nono piano ma vedere fuori era impossibile. Inoltre, sul sito ci sono indicazioni di una lavanderia, ma in realtà non è presente in struttura

Rapid decline in just one year.
Pros:

Great location away from French Quarter noise.

Cons:

I gave it a perfect "10" last year, but cannot believe how shabby and low-class it was this year! Staff not as dedicated, nor as attentive, as last year's stay. What a.shame.
