Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a prime location in the heart of the French Quarter, making it a great base for exploring. The rooms, while clean and adequately comfortable, show signs of wear and age. The service is courteous and helpful, aiming to enhance your stay. The dining experience, though boasting original dishes, may not be worth the high price tag. The hotel's facilities are well-maintained and functional.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable, and the location was outstanding just a few blocks from the action but a peaceful place to rest. The service was top-notch, ensuring all my needs were met, though a bit unwelcoming at times. The dining experience was outstanding, especially the pancakes, and the facilities were impressive.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable, boasting wood floors, canopy beds, and charming courtyard views. The service was exceptionally friendly and helpful, although room cleaning was occasionally subpar. The location was fantastic, just steps away from all the action in the French Quarter, offering a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. The dining experience was outstanding, especially the pancakes at M Bistro.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The variety of snacks and hot food options available in the room was unbeatable. The only downside was the noise issue that needed maintenance attention, but overall, I had a great experience and the staff was amazing.
