Great place too much air fresher

Overall great stay. My one complaint is the amount of air freshener in the room. I'm asthmatic and found I had to use an inhaler far more than usual. When I got home everything in my bag smelled like the room.

My room had mold and the smell was horrible. They changed my room but then the room the gave me had a constant running water sound right next to the head of the bed,and still had mold in those windows but not as much. I asked for another new room and finally got one that was livable. I will not be staying here again! I do have photos and video.

The property was clean for it being a Mardi Gras weekend. Valet and Check-in was a little slow, but again, it was a Mardi Gras weekend, so to be expected. I really didn’t have any problems or complaints. Crazy price at $1,000 for two nights, even for Mardi Gras, but great stay overall. I’d still do it again.
