Most of past reviews list the same concerns as we experienced. The check in process was not the best. Even the security guards thought it was crazy that the room wasn’t ready before 4 let alone at 4. In fact we didn’t get the information to check in until after 4. We then couldn’t get in our room because they were still cleaning the room and the floors were wet from them moping them as we waited. We chose not to pay extra money to check in early. So I don’t know if that would have been better, but again you pay extra for that. The elevators were dirty and they shook every time we were in there. There were Cheetos in the top of the elevator. There were multiple disparities with the photos versus the actual room. As others have reviewed, the couch had stains on it and should be replaced. There were marks all over the walls. There was no protective cover of the lights on the fan. The bathroom shower pole was very rusted - so much so that it was hard to even move the shower curtain. The shower curtain should be replaced. It became very wet anytime someone took a shower and the material soaked up water. The shower curtain allows for water to get all over the floor.
As others have said, you can hear everything from outside. It’s a busy part of town and sirens, honking, cussing and loud conversations can be heard at all hours of the day but especially at night. If you are a light sleeper be warned.
Now to the good stuff:
The location was great and the security guards were nice and welcoming. Everyone we met was very friendly. It was nice to have a code to get into the building for that added security. You are in walking distance to the French quarter and bourbon street. We pretty much could walk or take the trolley anywhere which is awesome. It was nice to have 2 bathrooms (1 full bath and 1 1/2 bath).
