Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a fantastic location near Bourbon Street and the staff was friendly and professional. However, the rooms were not up to standard in terms of cleanliness and safety, with issues like dirty sheets, mold, and hair. The dining experience was a mix of fabulous and disappointing.
The hotel is centrally located in the French Quarter, making it convenient to explore the area on foot. The rooms were basic and lacked sound resistance, with a musty smell possibly due to ventilation issues. The service from the bell and valet staff was friendly, but there were some issues that needed fixing. The hotel facilities met basic needs for a short stay.
