Our room was fine a few issues strangely the bedding was not ironed and very creased , there were marks on the curtains and the room had no safe, we asked 3 times and eventually a safe was delivered. Coffee machine and fridge in the room were great . The rooms are not soundproof so you hear lots of noise from the corridor . Bed was very comfy. Read less

Stayed here for a tournament at the Convention Center. Easy walking distance to the Center as well as many restaurants and not too far to the French Quarter. Room was fairly large with a desk and additional comfortable chair. The king bed was reasonably comfortable. Enjoyed the toiletries in the good-sized bathroom. Coffee maker had to be moved to the desk in order to be used-probably the only real complaint. Wardrobe instead of a regular closet was a bit small but there was plenty of storage otherwise.
