A friend and I stayed here in November. Upon arrival there wasn't any parking so you were advised to park in the front of the hotel, which a traffic police officer came by and gave us a ticket, along with everyone else who was told to park in front of the hotel. The hotel did pay for the ticket. Checking in was a joke. The room we were given was not the room we reserved. We did not get any new towels during the entire stay, but we did get a courtesy call from the front desk to tell us could we turn our TV down, which we thought was at a moderate level, because who watches the TV with the volume up loud. Anyhow, the location to the French quarter and casino make the hotel durable, but the actual location of the hotel can be a little scary at night. It is in a not so well lit alley. Overall the stay was not horrible but it definitely wasn't worth what we paid for it. I'm happy to see they went down on the prices.
