My two girlfriends (traveling buddies) and I decided to go to Jazzfest this year and found this hotel a little off the beaten path...and for a much more affordable price. The staff was phenominal...Chris....Bree...very friendly and accomodating. They even let us check in at 9:45 in the morning! Our room was ready, very clean and all the rooms had just... More

After several trips to NOLA we decided to try something different. We stayed at this hotel 4 nights during Jazz Fest. The hotel is on the West bank and off the beaten path but a quick ride over either bridge into New Orleans. The room was large and very clean. The manager Chris Anderson and whole staff was extremely helpful... More

Peterhoumala1-all I can say is THANK YOU for trying something different! It was a pleasure getting to know you and your wife and I'm delighted you took the time to check out some of our lesser known "Westbank Hotspots". If anything your review will definitely let our prospective guests that there is more to do than just the French Quarter... More

We would not have been in this area if not for the Zurich Classic. Was told the area is not the safest. This hotel was a nice surprise....great continental breakfast, comfortable bed, clean room, and close to the golf tournament. Couldn't ask for anything more!

Thanks Golfnutz2! The Zurich Classic is an event we're proud to have and I'm even prouder to be the closest hotel to the beautiful TPC Lousiana course. Like you said, I'm not really sure why our area gets dubbed as "unsafe" but I'm glad we were able to win you over. I will mention that we do have off duty... More

I've stayed here a few times for work--it's very conveniently located for that. Beds are comfortable, staff is very friendly, and there's a few hot selections for breakfast which is nice. But the breakfast room is too small--I always end up having to eat on the couch out in the lobby. And I always get put on the second floor,... More

Hey Heywood, Thanks for your great review and I'm glad the location of our hotel fits into your plans. We love having you here. As you mentioned we don't have an elevator as we're only 2 floors and well instead of looking at it as a negative, my team and I turn it into a positive---this way you don't have... More

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights over St Patrick's weekend. There are too many pluses starting with the price, breakfast and free parking. Our room was clean, clean, clean! And quite comfortable.

We used this motel as a transition point between New Orleans and Biloxi. Not too far from airport and not too far from downtown N.O.. The price and availability sold us. We arrived late and Keith (sp?) was very courteous. Overall, motel slightly exceeded our expectations - would not hesitate to stay there again.
