Generally it was a nice hotel. Its in a walkable part of town. Check in was a bit hectic with everyone checking in at the same time. Its cheaper to valet your car than to park in the lot which the hotel has a back door entrance. The valets garage was a couple blocks from the hotel so if you forget something in your car, your car has to be brought back to you in order for you to retrieve the item. Also, if you book a room with 2 queen beds make sure to double check your reservation to make sure that one of the beds is not a bunk bed.

Entire hotel room-safes do not work. Front desk is aware but no projected schedule for fixing. Beyond that the room safes are tiny and might fit a wallet plus a small e-reader. A full sized table wouldn't fit. Room 403: 1 of 2 queen sized memory foam mattresses was unusably destroyed (as if a thousand pound weight had been placed on the mattress permanently deforming the mattress. Room 405: leaky pipe in the bathroom (shower or sink???) allowing soapy water to get under the vinyl flooring in the main room. Drywall/plaster under the sink was visibly moldy and rotting which renders this particular room unfit for use advertised. The room needs to be closed for several days for the affected wall to be removed, the leak to be identified and corrected and for new wall to be constructed...this is not a "spray some bleach on it" issue. Pleasant staff. Nice bare bones gym. For the same approximate price past experiences at Holiday Inn Expresses on Loyola and O'Keefe were superior.

Room was a nice size, on the ground floor with a big king bed. Had everything that was needed. Tv was a nice size although the remove was not the standard one and was a universal replacement and didn’t work as well. Would recommend a mat / towel for the floor when having a shower. Breakfast was nice, although pancake maker was out of use for a few days. A nice selection hot and cold. Overall was a very pleasant stay.

Close to the downtown. Staff are nice. There were no maintenance on site so when we went to the 1st room, the lights weren’t working and were were given a new room. The new rooms lights worked but with room at street lamp level and no curtains in two of the three windows, which we didn’t realize until we got back late and the room was quite bright. Staff said window shades on back order. Ask for and was provided a thick blanket to cover window and slept better that night.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great! Location worked well because you had the option of taking the nearby trolley or walking to the french quarter. Also WWII museum was just around the corner. Would definitely stay again. Only issue is parking. They do have valet but it you park in the lot directly behind the hotel it is very expensive. Lot is not part of the hotel so just know it will cost you quite a bit. Hotel was nice and quiet.

Liked: Staff & service
Having stayed in many Holiday Inns, this was below par. ~The breakfast was adequate, nothing special. ~The service was good. The staff was friendly but absent from the front desk at times. One was complaining in the lobby about their job. One of the staff charged us for sundries another did not. There were no prices posted. The room had great AC and a comfortable bed, a fridge, microwave that worked. ~Towels were replaced but we didn’t have a bath mat after the first day. -The shower dripped after use and had mold in it. Hot water was plentiful. -We chose this hotel because it was on the streetcar line but it was broken during our stay. This cost us added inconvenience and travel expense. We were not told this until after we checked in. We should have gotten a discount on parking because of this.

No frills, clean hotel

No frills hotel in NOLA. Clean and simple. We liked having the included breakfast bar available before we went out for the day. Good location that is in between the quarter and the garden district with easy public transit access to both. We walked the 20 min walk back from the quarter nightly with ease and felt safe.
