Blackout rooms made it more difficult to get out of bed. Loved the location, beautiful courtyard, and fun place to explore around the many terraces around the property.

Cons (-) It was nothing that I didn't like. I'm used to stay and four star hotels so I had to adjust to the boutique feel of the room, but I bet it was comfortable and the atmosphere was authentic and great.

Pros (+) The hotel is right at the base of the French Quarter. If you plan to stay in the Quarter, this is a great option.
Cons (-) Noise and parking. During a busy time, self park will be almost impossible. We valeted in order to avoid searching for a space.
