Perks: The room was close to the French Quarter, easy to get to, and right beside a shopping center & a Starbucks! Management was super sweet and helpful!!:) Hard truths: our key didn't lock the door, which made us uneasy at night. The staircase to our room/patio was a fall hazard, traverse with care. Overall, we definitely got our money's worth, would consider staying again!
