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.

My experience at this hotel was great! The staff were very nice and accommodating. They made sure we had everything we need and let us check in early due to having an early flight. The room was nice and comfortable. Finding things to do was easy and was within walking distance. I definitely enjoyed my stay and I will definitely come back to this hotel at this same location.

Room was not ready by check-in time. Took a down size to get a room in a relatively timely manor. Found heat and thermostat did not work. Had housekeeping knocking at our door almost an hour before checkout time.

I was traveling for my birthday it was very difficult to add a guest to my room initially but that worked out. The front desk staff was nice but when we requested our room to be cleaned with the 24 hour policy they didn’t make or change the beds. We stay 4 nights and requested once and when we asked to get the sheets changed the cleaning department the were reluctant. The front desk staff was reassuring. The carpet also had visible stains. I wouldn’t allow mg dog to sleep on the pull out bed so I’m glad we upgraded to a double. Also the hotel was a little dangerous it a large homeless population that is unfortunate. For the price I definitely could have stayed somewhere else.

The check-in process was a hot mess. We waited 30 minutes to check in, unlike some of the "unlucky" ones before us who had been there for hours. This was the last game of the Saints' season, so surely they had practice with this before, not to mention tourism is the backbone of the New Orleans economy. The rooms were great, especially loved the kitchenette although we ate out most of the time. However, there was a horrible smell in the hallways that made the trips to and from the rooms an ordeal. Get rid of the smell and improve the check-in process and you get 5 stars. Make that 4 and three quarters. When we went to check-out, it seems we had already been checked out. Guess that's why the maid just barged into the room at 9:30 without even knocking.

Cozy home away from home

Loved the security. Our little suite was very cozy, but the modern partial fixed glass shower dppr gets water all over the floor. Couch is not comfy, hassock is ridiculously small. But our bed was perfect and we caught up on our sleep from the previous bad hotel mattress. For gluten intolerant guests, not much to eat at breakfast. Coffee had burned taste. Loved our kitchen, especially since we caught cold and needed hot soup. Very urban environ SO close to the Superdome! Did not feel safe at night outside. Had trouble finding great restaurants at reasonable prices, could have used help. So much premade, frozen, and awful food, and our cab driver has a brother at Emeril's and knew why!

Very convenient

Nice hotel, comfortable, clean and in very good condition. The breakfast was awesome!! Great start to the day with a lot of variety. Very close to the French Quarter, 10-15 minute walk. Didn’t rent a car and never felt it was necessary. Also close to the Superdome and Smoothie King arena. Very convenient area. The area has a lot of homeless people sadly but it is directly in front of a police station so it does not feel unsafe.
