We had a really good stay. Lots of the other reviews really helped with what to expect. We had a small room with a king sized bed and small, but functional, bathroom. The room was probably more suited to a queen sized bed because it was pretty small but I guess more people prefer a larger bed to extra floor space. We stayed in the King Oliver room which we enjoyed. It didn't face a street and near the main office side of the building so our wifi worked well. We thought the bed was comfortable. We were lucky enough to get one of the renovated rooms with the hardwood laminate flooring and not the carpet, which was a big complaint of the some of the reviews on other sites. Like other people have mentioned, the room is on the smaller side and so is the bathroom so you should really feel comfortable with the person you are staying with. There were several pros: 1. parking on site (if you want to pay full NOLA hotel parking prices and they have room), 2. Premium parking P336 or Go to Park (toulouse lot) are within 5 to 6 blocks and easily walkable and way cheaper, but not as secure. 3. In the building we were in, wifi worked well. 4. Bed was comfortable 5. Hotel location was GREAT. Easily walkable to everything in the quarter and most of Marigny. 6. Reasonably priced for being in the French Quarter but on the quieter side of the Quarter. 7. AC works great! It was a pretty warm week in December and the room stayed nice and cool.
Cons: 1. Water pressure was super super low
2. Plenty of hot water but it takes about 5 minutes to get hot and if your neighbor is showering when you are, even longer.
3. Clean, but not sparkling clean- grout had some mold, under the bed wasn't cleaned really well (sheets were clean and smelled good. White linen even the duvet made the bed feel clean). If you are super picky about it being spotless, maybe not up to your standards.
4. If you don't smoke, it can be a little rough. The doorways open into the courtyards where smoking is allowed, and even with the door shut, you can smell the smoke (which I am pretty sensitive to)
5. No fridge in the rooms. I think there used to be one under the TV in the cabinet but it wasn't there while we were there. I can live easily without a microwave on vacation, but it is nice to have a place to keep drinks cold. Also, no hair dryer in the bathroom which was listed in the ad.
Overall, we had a good stay. Everything was basically a 10 - 15 minute walk. I would stay again. Just walk into it knowing what you are getting and you will be happy.
