We absolutely loved this hotel. We were only here for 1 night but wish it was longer. Perfect location, only 2 streets from Bourbon street but very quiet and a stones strow from Jackson square and cafe de monde!! The room was immaculate and beautiful. The courtyard and pool were lovely and there was free towels there as well. The staff were helpful and we even managed to get checked in early.
