The first room we had was an actual cellar. Smelled like humidity and mold. There were centipedes in the room. The second one was slightly better but still had that horrible moldy cellar smell. Might become a safety hazard after a while.

Even though the power went out one night, that is no fault of the hotel and it was really hot... we highly enjoyed our stay. We were given an upgrade to two rooms since the family room AC wasn't working. We will be back.

Rented a deluxe room in the pictures it looks super cool and everything and very nice but when I showed up and saw it in person, it wasn’t what I was expecting completely different. The customer service desk was awesome and very friendly very helpful. The room smells like from the other tenant that a vomit specially in the garbage can. I did bring my own sheets and blanket, which I was super glad I did due to the fact that the sheets were all stained with black marks on it. For the price it was worth. I’m just really not sure of it to be honest.. but I tell you this that the lady that worked on night shift when I was staying there on Friday she was absolutely amazing super cool, great person and very friendly.

Good affordable choice

Good location, an easy walk to Frenchman and Bourbon Street. Felt very safe walking back to my room by myself in the middle the night. Plenty of good restaurants nearby.The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Air conditioner worked well, and there was a ceiling fan above the bed. Shower not great, and there was no table or desk. I would stay again.

Charged me $71 for the room then $100 deposit when I got there, that still hasn’t been returned even after I called about it and they said they started the refund process. Bathroom had not been cleaned, hair all over, plus only one towel.
