Poor

  : the location
  : The room was not very clean and it smelled, there were only indirect lights, there was a misunderstanding with my bill at check out that took ages to sort out, the rooms are loud (traffic outside), the air conditioning was too loud and too strong, people at the reception were semi-friendly

  : The location, easy to get to local attractions and central to Mardi Gras events. The staff were pleasant, courteous and knowledgeable about the area. Unique features of the hotel - ex bank, safe is a stand out feature. Ice machine was good, used frequently.
  : Was quite noisy. could hear cars existing the car park. Room service inconsistent, toiletries left in the room were varied.

  : Location
  : When I arrived after a long trip, I was shocked to find someone else's dirty underwear IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROOM when I first entered it. I went to the reception and asked for another room, but they didn't seem that shocked about it at all. The new room they gave me was okay, but then the next day when I came back to my room, I found the door of my room open. I guess housekeeping had left it open. Luckily, everything was still there, but (especially as a woman travelling alone) it's not a nice feeling that anyone could have been inside your room. Also, the hotel makes several safety recommendations (for example to always lock your door, also when you're inside, to check ID if someone claims to be from the hotel etc), but that seems a bit ironic if housekeeping just leaves the door open. So, I went to the reception, and again, they didn't seem that shocked about it at all. It's not just the fact that those things happened that makes me angry, but also they way the receptionists handled it and made me feel like I was just an annoying guest. I contacted Booking.com, and they handled it very well (thank you, Booking.com!). So I would definitely not recommend to stay here.
