Great spot and rooms were recently renovated. Cool old hotel with great French Quarter vibes. Peaceful and as quiet as you can get in the French Quarter. Shower had great water pressure and the bed was comfortable.

The room was clean and spacious. It was a very convenient location. Staff was welcoming and friendly. The only thing was that there was no mirror in the room (there was a half mirror in the bathroom). It made getting ready slow since we were sharing the room. Apart from that, I'd recommend this hotel to anyone.

I think the only thing I didn't like about the hotel is that you have to pay extra to swim in the pool. That is just crazy!

This is a great hotel if you are looking for a basic hotel in downtown New Orleans. The pool was average. There is no alcohol at the bar. No food or drink. The rooms were very basic. The balcony opened to a side street. Desk clerks were nice.
