We stayed for 5 nights, and I have to say I was very impressed with this place. Earlier in our stay, we had a terrible experience at a different Holiday Inn in downtown. We called this hotel last minute to see if they had availability, and Michael answered our call. He was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to get us booked.
When we arrived, Michael personally greeted us and continued to be extremely helpful given our situation. His professionalism and kindness truly turned a stressful experience into a great stay. Thank you so much, Michael, for making our anniversary trip to New Orleans that much better! ✨

Customer service is very poor. Front desk lady, no eye contact, doesn't care whatsoever. My autistic chatgpt expresses more emotions, really. Rooms are okay, price is okay also.
