My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, though on the smaller side, are well-appointed with a fabulous bed and a premium view. The staff members, from Carlos in the motor court to Cynthia at brunch, were incredibly hospitable and professional. The location in the French Quarter on Royal Street is great for those wanting to be away from the hustle and bustle. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some room for improvement in the breakfast options. However, the facilities were satisfactory and well-maintained.

The hotel's location is lovely, right in the center of the New Orleans French Quarter, making all the city has to offer readily available. The rooms, though small, are clean and basic, with service that is incredibly friendly and welcoming. However, the dining was not inexpensive, and the fish dishes were wonderful. The value for money could be improved, given the prices charged for services.
