If you’re just in New Orleans for one or two nights, it’s a great cheap place to stay centrally located
Pros:

I like the convenience of where the hotel was located and we could easily walk to the French Quarter or down Canal Street also when we checked in super late at night, the woman behind the desk was so helpful so friendly telling us restaurants that would still be open

Cons:

It’s old it was not clean properly the bathroom was dirty and there were doors open to a crawlspace by the ceiling that I couldn’t close so that was freaky

Please remove soiled linen in front of guest door.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

I stayed for 3 nights. I arrived at 9pm Sunday night and a black large trash bag full of dirty sheets was in front of my door. I spoke with the front desk the next morning and they removed the bag. When I arrived back Monday afternoon another black bag full of dirty sheets was in front of my door. On the last night there it was 2 bags of dirty bags near my door (unit 202).

It wasn't very pleasant entering and exiting my room daily with dirty linen sitting in front of my door.

Great staff, poor maintenance internally
