Comfortable and nice, but thin walls.
The hotel itself was nice overall, clean and good location. We were happy with the actual space. Our biggest problem was the very thin walls! We had read reviews about this but did not expect it to be as bad as it was. We would consider staying again, but would bring noise machines.

We enjoyed spreading out in the three rooms. Washer/dryer was a nice thing to have. Interesting decor. Room was right by elevator and people were pretty noisy coming in and out all night until the morning.

No windows in the bedrooms, no closets in the unit, no towels at the pool, and not a great stay. Everything else was good.

Wouldn't Do Again
The walls are super thin, so all night could hear people coming and going in the halls. The 3 bedroom felt cramped, and there definitely wasn't enough seating outside in the living area for us all. When we asked for extra towels, we were told to run a load of laundry.

Birthday celebrations.
I stayed to celebrate birthdays within my family. The location was close to restaurants and attractions. We were 2 blocksaway from Bourbon Street. The living space was clean and spacious.

Super Bowl trip
Overall experience and location were wonderful. However, needed dressers and/or storage, couch super uncomfortable (needed pillows), need to be aboe to wat h local programming- streaming doesn’t cut it! On a positive note, loved the access to extra accoutrements like TP, etc. right out in the hallway.
