I liked this hotel. It was quiet and the breakfast was good. Walkable to the fun area in NOLA. I am giving it 4 stars because of the bathroom. The shower was made for failure. Why in the world you put half glass door and when taking shower, all the water comes out to the floor. Plus the floor is wood and it is a disaster. Other than that, I liked the room because it is a studio style apartment. It has dishes, dishwasher, cookware, etc. Room was clean. Although the rug had some stains. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Great value

A fantastic suite, very large with full kitchen. Helpful & kind staff. The only issue we had was that the outlets in the room were finicky and often didn’t work, and the bathroom light switch automatically turned on the fan which was very loud and could not be turned on separately.

Okay for a short stay, not sure if they had a housekeeping system. Very noisy at times, breakfast was over cooked & very little variety for a vegetarian. Bathroom shower leaked water through the glass door, rust on the wall due to the water leaking Not worth staying here more than 4 days

One particularly rude receptionist

The experience was pitiful, the entire gym was broken. Literally every single gym equipment was broken, including the water machine. I asked about a late checkout through their upgrade offers email and was told that I would get a decision at time of check in. Not only did I not get a confirmation upon check in but i was told on the day before leaving that I was unable to get one from another employee who stopped the front desk receptionist from even checking if it was possible or even if I could get a smaller extension. Now I was willing to pay whatever they asked for the late check out and i am fully aware that i am not owed one but I would expect some willingness to check if it was possible and a timely decision so i can make some contingency plans. The receptionists overall are great but there's a particular one who seemed to make it a mission to make our stay as awful as possible. Very disappointing and I promise to stay away from this brand for all my travel needs.
