Pros:

Hospitality was amazing and also everyone was very informative as well

Cons:

The bedroom door of my room lets in light because it’s short, so I placed a towel under the door to block out the hallway light.

Pros:

We found blood on our sheets and all they did was send us up a pair of new sheets and have us change the sheets and make the beds ourselves, super disgusting and gross. the room had no windows. kinda small.

Great value for the location. Would have been amazing if we had a different room away from the coffee shop entrance
Pros:

Great location. Walking distance to a lot of restaurants and bars within the French Quarter. Easy pick up spot for Uber/Lyft.

Cons:

We were in a room that was right next to the back entrance for PJs Coffee Shop. It was very noisy early in the morning, which made sleeping in impossible. Don’t understand why there is a room next to the entrance.
Also, the ceiling was cracking and leaving ceiling flakes all over the room desk, which made it feel a little dirty.

Wunderschönes Geburtstagswochenende in New Orleans
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt perfekt um New Orleans zu erkunden. Gegenüber ist ein großer - zugegebenermaßen übertrieben teurer - Parkplatz. Allerdings ist in New Orleans alles mega teurer: Hotel, Parkplatz, Essen, Museen, Aktivitäten usw. Man bekommt aber auch sehr viel geboten für sein Geld. Wenn das Auto einmal steht, braucht man es nicht mehr für den Aufenthalt. Man kann alles bequem zu Fuß oder per Bahn erreichen. Das Zimmer war groß und gemütlich. Im Bad hat uns besonders die große Dusche gefallen. Hier hätte ich mich eventuell über einen kleinen Vergrößerungsspiegel gefreut. Man ist ja nicht mehr die Jüngste 😜. Das Hotel hat einen wunderschönen schattigen Innenhof mit Pool und Sitzmöglichkeiten. Das Personal war super freundlich. Im Hotel gibt es zwar kein Frühstück, aber in der Nähe findet man genügend Bars und Restaurants in denen man das typische Southern Breakfast genießen kann. Uns hat besonders Estrella Steak and Lobster House auf der gleichen Straße gefallen.

Cons:

Da fällt mir nix ein.
