Great location, just a block from activities! The parking was easy to get in and out of it. The room was clean and the bed was nice, however, it got a little cold at night. I wish there were extra blankets in the room.

Room in the French Quarter

It is a nice hotel both close to the French Quarter sites without the noise. The rooms were spacious and clean. Only negative was that you could hear people in the hallway at night. We still slept well in our comfy bed.

The location was excellent, but the bar and food area in the hotel was closed the entire week we were there. Charged for parking in their parking lot which should be included considering how much we paid for the stay an entire week. Room was dirty from previous people.
