Our room needed some TLC. The shower glass door had been removed or broken and a shower curtain was hung in its place. The front desk staff was very nice. And, then we waited 30 minutes for our vehicle from the valet. They just didn't get it and skipped over us. We finally walked through the hotel and loaded our stuff in as it was coming down from the parking garage so we could get going. Little things, but they added up to not a great start to our visit.

The location was great. It’s a half block away from Bourbon street. Close to be able to walk to almost everything we did. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Room was nice. Only complaint was the bathroom was small. Not much space to put toiletries. Shower was narrow and no waste basket in bathroom. The shower pressure was amazing!! Pool is small but we did t use as it was chilly when we were there. Nice courtyard area for pool. Would definitely stay there again.
