“Decent Stay”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

This was a 3 day stay for a family reunion. The hotel has 13 floors and we were on 5th floor. Room was nice, service pretty good for a hotel that size. Hotel dining is next door (within hotel) at a bar and grill. Breakfast was $7.95 for adults and kids eat free. Reasonable. I was told by a military... More

If you have business on this side of the river, its a great place to stay. If you are a tourist without a car it would be very inconvenient. We had to have a car this trip so that was not much of a problem, except on the nights we wanted to drink. Cab fare to the French Quarter ranged... More

At first sight, I was not disappointed: courteous welcome, prompt checkin, large and well appointed room, fast and free wifi. However second later I discovered that my room had a direct view of the motorway and that the windows were nowhere near to soundproof. The situation was actually worse than in some of the airport hotels with direct runway views... More

We stayed at this hotel before a cruise, and it suited our needs just fine. The hotel has 15 rooms on each floor in a circle around the elevators.
