The place has a lot of charm, but it's overpowered by the wet musty dampness and smell. I can forgive some of the dust and few areas of debris on the floor, but the wet sheets and odor of must and mildew was a bit much. all of our clothes and bags carried the smell the rest of our vacation. for the price and the time of year when NOLA was extremely quiet, I would have hoped for just a bit more for our money. we weren't looking for much to begin with as we're not that picky and we both like and understand old buildings, but there's a limit. not to mention the mechanical issues with the ice machine, elevator, and lack of breakfast options. we want to stay again, but we probably won't make this our first consideration. there's a ton of potential, with a few ventilation enhancements and basic treatments, the hotel could be perfect for the location and quietness it provides. also, charging for extra towels and turn down is being stingy, those should be included.
