Stayed at the hotel while visiting Tulane University. The easy access to the trolly provided great transportation without using Ubers. Super friendly staff and gorgeous well appointed rooms. We also loved the cafe and bar on the first floor and the rooftop bar and view was the cherry on top!

Overall really great stay. Comfortable beds, clean rooms and a great view of the city! Loved the direct access to the trolley just outside the hotel and also the breakfast at Silver Whistle downstairs was phenomenal - loved The Avenue truffle egg jar. Never made it upstairs to the rooftop because kids aren’t allowed up there but heard it’s really beautiful. One thing that would have been helpful would be larger shampoo/comdutioner/body wash bottles in the room, not really enough to accommodate four people.
