The staff was very courteous. I have stayed at this hotel many times over the years and I have to compliment the refurbishment of the bathrooms. I requested an extra bar of soap twice; never R’cd, so I finally helped myself to a bar of soap off of the cleaner’s cart.

Great place to stay when in New Orleans. Close to everything we wanted to see. Everything was excellent. The bed was super comfortable after a 5 hour drive from Houston. Nice and quiet area. The plus was I had a balcony!

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel experience was far from pleasant. Upon entering the building or stepping out of my room, I was immediately greeted by an overwhelming smell of pets that was hard to ignore. The strong odor of urine added to the discomfort, making it evident that cleanliness was not a priority here. Given the amount of money I spent for the night, including parking fees, I expected better accommodations. Additionally, the morning coffee was terrible; I had better coffee during military field training.
