The room was nicely furnished and comfortable. Staff was a little inattentive. Amenities (shampoo, coffee,etc.) were sparse. Great music in the downstairs bar, unfortunately didn’t get to go to the rooftop bc it was closed in the morning and only 21+ when open so my 18 year old son couldn’t go see the view. That was disappointing.

Loved the asthetic of the property. Old but very clean and beautifly done. Beds were very comfy. The room was a very good size and the bathroom was huge. Close walking distance to restaurants and a very nice stroll during the day to see some beautiful homes. We would definitely stay again.

Rude desk clerk. When had complaint about property, she reacted by refusing to listen and flipped me managers card. Turned property complaint into a personal thing. Told to move out way. Detected not so subtle racism.

One of the most iconic hotels in New Orleans. The location and staff were great. The hotel itself needs some updating but still a great place to stay.
