Once we got inside, we could see it was a nice hotel and room, the outside and street was sort of sketchy, so we weren't sure at first, but the staff was very friendly. Our room was just as it looks on the website, nice. The clerk even stayed on the phone with me until we located the parking and the door to enter the hotel, like I said it was not too appealing on that street. However, once we got out to walk around, we were so close to shops and restaurants including Cafe de Monde, my favorite!
