This is our go-to hotel in the French quarter. The rooms are always clean and the bed comfortable. This time our higher priced balcony suite was disappointing. The air conditioning blew so cold it was uncomfortable and the room felt much colder than where the thermostat was set. Also there was an outlet on only one side of the bed, which is very inconvenient for charging phones or being able to plug in two CPAPs. It seems they could easily run a conduit behind the bed and add add another outlet.

Getaway

We opted to stay in the French Quarter of New Orleans. The room was fine, but it’s minimal. They offer free water at the front desk, but there is really nowhere to go and sit to enjoy a cup of coffee other than poolside. This is not a bad place. It just didn’t offer enough amenities for me.

Great location in the quarter but far enough away from the main areas where it is quiet enough to enjoy peace! Close to the Frenchman side & lafittes for a purple drank!

I really enjoyed our stay, overall! Nice employees, room was clean, and shower was nice. Pool was great fun! I was confused about the lack of a microwave in the room, but that may just be due to the hotel’s age. Also no vending machines, complimentary water in lieu. Overall, 7.7/10
