Disliked: Amenities
Room was fine. Had a makeup mirror, with no way to charge it. Had a TV, with no internet. Staff was very friendly. The hotel was very busy, with a really small lobby so it was very chaotic feeling down there. In comparison the room was quiet and comfortable. It's a fine hotel for a weekend or 3 night stay, any longer was too much. Not enough place to put our clothes. So kind of a suitcase stay.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff was very welcoming - ESPECIALLY ALEX C (front desk) - and we appreciated the readiness of everyone we met to offer assistance. The complimentary glass of wine in the lobby was a nice touch! Maintenance (sorry, I didn't get his name) was prompt and attended to our late-night TV problems (the TV would not stay off; he reprogrammed it). The room was clean, suitable for us, and reasonably priced for the location. The beds were VERY comfortable, too! The food and service at the restaurant were world-class (I'm now stuck wanting the cheese board again upon our next visit). Thank you, Jason, for taking good care of us across multiple evenings. Gospel (the corner coffee shop) is also a nice touch! Good coffee and tasty pastries. And THANK YOU for being pet-friendly! Didn't know about the (per survey) alleged "free" breakfast and the $45.84 price for four little flavorless room service eggs and two servings of grits was insane. $4 per egg? REALLY? Kudos to ALEX C, JASON, and to the maintenance tech for making our stay particularly pleasant. We are looking forward to booking again the next time we're in New Orleans.
