Property is under construction - all parking spots are labeled for valet only - BUT not currently using valet - so really they are all open- you just don't know that. Room was okay. Absolutely no insulation / sound proofing between rooms or door to hall. Neighbor turned on TV at about 230 AM and woke us up and kept us awake. Not sure if same, but others were in hall about same time and they were loud and we could hear them quite clearly. while upgrading rooms it would be nice if you could work on how much noise transfers to room. Take and go breakfast is a joke- mini sausage biscuit thing, prepackage muffin, prepackaged small bagels, granola bar, one type of yogurt, apple juice and a small cream cheese in a fridge on a counter that looked like it was well used. no toaster for bagels.

Nice stay. Clean and quiet but it currently has some areas of construction and the pool is closed. No hot breakfast. Only grab and go due to the construction.

This Comfort Inn— transitioning into a Fairfield Inn, Mariott is just fine. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and by far the best thing about it, a friendly, welcoming staff. No complaints—but if you are there to see downtown and the French Quarter, you’ll have to walk. Not much more than a mile, but just so you know. For the price, no doubt I would stay again. But I am partying elsewhere!

The property was good for the price. Some of my ratings are due to the parking situation and breakfast options. They are switching ownership and are redoing the parking lot which made parking inconvenient and it smelled horrible outside due to it. The breakfast options weren’t the best either. Other than that, it was a great stay and the staff were super friendly and amazing. The rooms were clean and everything else was great!

The property was under major renovation. This was not conveyed before booking. No lobby or dining for the free breakfast which was only a grab and go prepackaged muffin. Front desk staff occasionally would look up from their cell phone as you walked by. Attitude was as though you were a bother to them.
