This is actually my 2nd time staying in that building.
Pros: The room is GREAT. Very comfortable. Probably even more so than it looks in the pictures. Very comfortable and spacious. Loved the bed, shower, and the couch was perfect for watching Netflix while trying to avoid the urge to get hammered in the French Quarter.
Cons: The building itself. Not gonna lie, the elevator scares the crap out of me. It's one of the reasons I was trying to avoid this building, because all of the cons were the same as the last time I stayed at a condo in that building, but didn't realize this one was in the same building. That elevator shakes, vibrates, and sounds like it's struggling. I asked the doorman if they fixed the elevator since 2020 and he said that he had actually just gotten stuck in that elevator days ago and if there were any issues just "call somebody." I hated every time I had to get in that thing.
But as bad as the elevator is, don't take the stairs. Do-not-take-the-stairs. At all. Ever. We tried taking the stairs down (the room is on the 10th floor) and it was like going down the rabbit hole. It got more and more rundown as it went. Eventually, it didn't even look like the same building. Next thing you know there is rat feces everywhere, then the bottom floor was COVERED in fecal matter. Not all rats either. It was like Johnny Depp's bed. Then we popped out of a doorway behind a restaurant. It was like accidentally wondering into another dimension.
Final verdict: The room is great. Very worth it if the creaky elevator doesn't bother you. And, never, ever, ever take the stairs.
