The room is spacious especially the furniture are up on the wall to make the room more space. I like that they offer game stations at the lobby. I was offered free drink with non-alcoholic drink options. The staff brought us hot water. That's very sweet. The staff are friendly and very efficient.

Arrived to a busy check in area. Gave them information and then was strangely asked to be seated, which was a first. But within maybe 8-10 minutes they waved us back to the desk. Where a very friendly Trey quickly checked us in. Unfortunately he did have to inform us that rooms with a view (as selected during online booking) weren’t cleaned and available. To be fair it was 330 and the check in time was 30 minutes away. I suppose we were lucky to get in early. Perhaps if I waited, the room we booked would have become available. However, we desperately wanted to put down our heavy bags so gladly accepted the interior room. And ultimately it turned out fine as there was no daylight coming inside waking us up early The room was very spacious with comfortable king bed. It was updated, modern, and the ac was great. But extremely strange to not have a mini fridge. Perhaps I over looked this detail when booking. How can one enjoy a city that eats and drinks with no way to keep it chilled? Also there’s no microwave. But there was a whole ironing room on several floors. Another plus is the gifted two free drinks during your stay, which is rare. 24 hour bar too! Pros: Great location. Less than one mile from casino. Couple blocks from canal street. Affordable. 24 hour bar. Cons: no fridge, microwave, or kitchenette type area. No complementary breakfast

Very cool,relaxed casual vibe. Perfect location in the French quarter. Amazing staff. Rooms are nice. The bathrooms could use some work. Still a very cool vibe. The mattress felt to me like a lumpy futon mattress, so was not a fan at all. 2 nights of no sleep cuz of it. But my daughter thought it was comfortable, so maybe just a preference thing. The staff here are absolutely wonderful. And the vibe is very cool.

We stayed from tuesday to saturday on mardi gras weekend, the staff was super nice, there are plenty of good restaurants nearby, the room was clean and ample. It was far enough from the craziness of bourbon st. Also the price was unbeatable. Would definitely recommend staying here. I dont understand the picky reviews.

Stayed here with 2 of my friends. I give it a 4/5. Location was great. Not too far from the happenings of the French Quarter but close enough to walk. The staff were great. However. The room was interesting. The shower was a rainfall shower head. So thats a nice feature. Beds were comfortable. Spacious enough for 3 people. Interesting tidbit. The hotel doesn't have a microwave, fridge, or continental breakfast. Which is interesting because its usually an amenity. We came during one of the coldest weekends. Heating was not working. It was colder inside the room then outside. We had extra blankets given but we were still cold. Would I stay here again? Probably not just because of the lack of continental breakfast option and mini fridge.

First & foremost it was a lil different from the hotels I've stayed at. I had three windows & a view of the streets surrounding hotel. I ask for hangers & was brought extras. Joshua, the front desk manager & Elisha, the Housekeeping manager were very accommadating to our requests & very pleasant & professional. Thank you!!!

Best part of stay was Josh. He was very friendly and helpful. I felt the hallway and entrance were a bit dirty. The room was 2 queen. No mini frig. Only a card table chair to sit on. Bathroom was shower only and toliet - sink was outside bathroom. The ice machine did not work on our floor. About half the lights were not working in the elevator. Valet parking was offered but we opted for 24hr parking garage for $25/day just across from hotel. This is better option if not using your car during stay.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely phenomenal service! Jalisa was incredible from start to finish. Not only was she an amazing bartender who made every drink perfectly, but she also went above and beyond at the front desk to make sure everything ran smoothly. Her energy, professionalism, and warm personality made this the best experience I’ve had in New Orleans. She made us feel welcome, taken care of, and like we were part of the family. If every place had a Jalisa, the world would be a lot more fun. She truly made our trip unforgettable!
