“Filithy and Dirty Dump”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

I've had a time share for over 20 years at this hotel. My daughters checked in on Sat. Water was coming out of the bathroom ceiling. They were told it couldn't be fixed until Monday. They were offered 2 other rooms, the first, the main door could be opened by shaking the door, the 2nd, when they pulled back the bed covers had several different color hairs in it. They left and went to the hotel across the street. This is how an original owner is treated.

Room Tip: Stay some place else.

“What a dump!!!”

The only shining light of our stay here was the staff. I think they felt sorry for us because the hotel is so filthy & in disrepair.

“New Orleans October 2011”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We were in the Pandora Room (4th Floor) and found the room dirty and in much need of repairs. Our sheets had holes and stains and new ones were not much better. We woke up and found we had no water on Monday (citys fault) then on Thursday No water AGAIN & only 2 out of the 4 of us showered...no toilet (hotel fault). No one called us to warn us of the problem! The only good thing about this hotel is the location.

Room Tip: We were told ours was the best :(

“Not much of a resort”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011
2
people found this review helpful

The best thing I can say about this hotel is the location is good and the staff is friendly. The accommodations are a bit disappointing especially for a "resort". We traded our Williamsburg timeshare for this New Orleans hotel. Interval should be ashamed of themselves to include this run down property in their portfolio of resorts. The hotel is old and in need of modernization. The bathroom was not clean when we walked in and the paint in the jacuzzi area was peeling.

“New Orleans October 2011”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

After reading the reviews for this place I was a little worried before coming here. Although not the newest place in town, the place had character. This wasn't one of the huge hotel chains with tiny rooms and paper thin walls which was so nice. We stayed in room 106 ( right by the courtyard) and loved the place. It was a huge loft type room with TONS of room. The only downside was probably that there was only one bathroom and there were lots of steep ( spiral) steps to get to the bedrooms and bathroom. Other than that the staff was decent although the maid did seem to miss our room a couple days we did have plenty of fresh towels! GREAT location for walking everywhere and where our room was you couldn't hear any traffic. If I went to New Orleans again I would stay in this place again handsdown/
