Valet was good. But other then that they cancelled my reservation and only emailed me after they cancelled it so I arrived and had no room. They were over booked and instead emailing me to tell me I needed to pay in advance they just cancelled it. I dunno if I ever want to stay with Marriott again.

Room was clean and comfortable, but we had to ask for additional wash clothes and clean towels. Location felt safe and was convenient to the stop for the streetcar. It's an easy walk to Bourbon Street but far enough away to get a good night's sleep. Front-desk staff was polite, efficient, and helpful.

Great location, but we unfortunately had pretty noisy neighbors and the rooms are not acoustically insulated so it was impossible to sleep through the night. Some of the rooms also don’t have windows, which was bizarre.

Strange hotel, no drawers in room or closet. No mirror above desk line other hotels. VERY WALKABLE which was the best quality. Could not call the front desk from the room nor were there any instructions. When asked to front desk they said dial 0, which we had tried, or 0# which also didn’t work. When I mentioned it to front desk later in day, they didn’t even ask me what room or apologize. However this wasn’t the worst of it. On Saturday the group across the hall from us was having a party and awoke us 3 times between 2:30am - 4:00am. I even tried calling the front desk three different times from my cell phone and no one answered. It is in a GREAT location but with so many other hotels, I wouldn’t stay here again.
