Being 63 years old I was a little concerned I would not fit in as I have not hostiled in 25 years. But I was welcomed and made to feel right at home. The common area/bar/breakfast-bar was a great place to meet people from all around the world. upon check in I received a free drink ticket and breakfast was included and served by an ever smiling and ever helpful Miranda that I looked forward to being greeted by every morning at breakfast. It's located right in between the garden district and the French quarter both of which I enjoyed walking to on numerous occasions. The world war II museum is right around the corner. Thanks for everything and special thanks to Miranda. :-)
