“Dirty hotel with poor service”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2011

We traveled to New Orleans for the 2011 Sugar Bowl. Upon arrival, the lobby was crowded with many guests needing to check-in but only one young girl working the desk. She was overwhelmed and we waited close to 25 minutes to check-in. When we got to the room, we did a check for bed bugs (which thankfully we did not see) and noticed some pretty shabby bedding and poorly vacuumed carpet. The next morning, we discovered that the shower barely worked with very spotty hot water. The towels were very thin and in poor shape. I also saw a cockroach climb up the bathroom door. The rooms feature an advertisement for a nearby Domino's Pizza that closes at 11pm. We called at 10:40 and were told we couldn't order anything. When we tried to order online, even the Domino's website says orders can be placed up until 11pm, the shop cancelled the order. In fact, there really isn't any place to eat nearby unless you want fast food. The only sit-down place is an IHOP, that refused to open extra seating areas, even though large crowds were in town for the bowl game.

Housekeeping also did not clean our room one day, even though we put out the door sign requesting the room to be made up. We were gone for at least 10 hours and no one came to clean. The one day they did clean the room, they did not replace all the towels or the coffee for the coffee maker.

What really put us over the top was the last morning when there was absolutely no hot water available in the room. When we complained to the front desk, they just said "well I guess a lot of people are showering"....no duh, it's a hotel. I also mentioned the cockroach, but no one seemed to concerned about that.

My suggestion is if you ever go to New Orleans for a special event such a bowl game, spend the extra money and stay downtown.

“BED BUGS”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2011

Stayed with my family room 315..sheets looked dirty and so did the towels. My mom woke up with bites all over here and we had BED BUGS.I also woke up with a bite Showed the staff and they even caught one in a cup off the bed! Didn't even seemed to be too concerned. I would NEVER stay in this hotel and warn others not too! Obviously they don't spend much time cleaning and I doubt they even did anything about it once we left!! We might are trying to not bring the bugs home but my mom woke up again with more bites at home, which will be impossible to get rid of if we have them. Also breakfast there was not that great. They didn't tell anyone that it ended and instead just starting turning off the machines and putting all the stuff away. Pretty rude. We stayed there for the Sugar bowl for 2 days. What a mistake. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

“Good value, nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2010

Took the family to New Orleans. The hotel is just far enough off of I-10 to be quiet. Driving through the neighborhood, I was concerned. Near the hotel, however, the area seems fine. The property is ok, nothing special. We checked in and went to dinner. When we returned about 10Pm, we realized the A/C was not working. Maintenance came quickly and determined we had to move to the room next door. No more problems. Service with a smile. Breakfast was good. The pool area was nice. The A/C in the fitness area was not working either. Oh well. Good excuse not to workout.

“Don't stay here”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2010

First of all, I didnt stay here. a large number of my family was staying here for our family reunion. I had the opportunity to see several rooms and hear about many others.

First, many of the rooms have a mold smell. My wife's 90 year old grandmother had to be moved at least 4 times because of the mold smell in her room. Several other people reported moving because their rooms smelled of mold. One person said they couldnt sleep all night because of the strong mold smell. There was also a moldy smell in all the hallways.

I believe most of the mold complaints came from people on the first 2 floors.

I specifically saw two rooms in detail, a King Room and Double room on the third floor.
The people in the double room told me they had to have their lamp shades changed because of the moldy smell. Other than that, it looked like a standard double room with a small table, refrigerator and CRT TV.
The King room was similar. It looked fairly standard and basic. Refrigerator, CRT TV and standard bathroom.

The furniture in the lobby looked to be a ROOMS TO GO suite from somebody's house. It was noticably stained.

The onsite "security" personnel looked to be high school age or slightly older kids walking around in T-Shirts that said "Security".

This hotel is in a fairly depressed area. Obviously, the area was underwater during Katrina. Many buildings are boarded up, although there is an IHOP and several fast food places close.
