Only like a 7 min walk to burbon street 3 to 5 min walk to canal. Very convenient but not around the chaos once your ready for bed. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Rooms were clean. Tv didnt work when we got there but someone came right away to fix it. My only suggestion is to maybe keep the breakfast buffet open a little longer cause some ppl sleep in after a night of drinking. Oh also they had complementary cookies at the front desk. Yum 😋

I never got my deposit back for one. Mediocre hotel. Clean but smelled a little funky. Hard spring mattresses. Only upside is how close it is to the quarter. Spend a little more and get a better hotel

The stay worked great for my trip. Within walking distance of the attractions I was looking to see in New Orleans. The breakfast each morning was amazing! Room was clean. Bed and pillows were better than home. Only issue was the noise the city provides including trash pickup at 4 am. Would definitely stay there again!!!

It was walking distance to all attractions at the French Quarter. The soap and shampoos were great and the room was clean. We had a warm welcome and the housekeeping team did great! One thing is that the water pressure for the shower was low but overall everything was perfect! Will definitely come back

We had a really great stay! It was clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel provided breakfast which was a nice perk, and they had parking available. That was important! It was within walking distance of the French Quarter which made it super convenient. Definitely the hotel I will stay at whenever I'm in New Orleans!!

The hotel is in a great location and we felt safe while staying there. The hotel engineer, Calvin, went above and beyond on our first night there. When we checked in, the air conditioner in our room wasn’t blowing very hard and the air was not cold. He came to our room quickly, diagnose the problem, and switched out the air conditioner unit on the spot. The breakfast downstairs was excellent and all of the staff that we encountered were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.
