“rude and bad service”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

we checked into room which was okay for staying just for the night and we noticed how bad parking was. The room was comfortable enough and we were only there a few hours for celebrating in New Orleans New Years Eve night. We got back about 2am and it was chaos in the parking lot. Everybody in the cars were jammed up with no places to park, we were told to go in back far away from our room, and its not in the best area of town right off the street. The lot is not gated or secure at all and people were drinking and partying in the lot. We went to office to check out and drive home which was about 2 hrs. away into Baton Rouge. The office staff was very rude and barely spoke English. They just kept pointing at some kind of contract for us to sign to check out and threw the papers at us. We just left and people were talking so loud in the office you didn't know if complaining or what. They should not take reservations if they have no room to accomodate parking in a safe area. We tried calling on phone after getting back to Baton Rouge and could hardly find a person who spoke English clear enough to help us and make sure we were checked out and not charged for another day. It was very hard for us to have to drive back after celebrating all night in New Orleans and was very careful driving on the interstate with lots of police around.

Room Tip: It is a very old place with staircases and no elevator.

“What”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011

If your are a light sleeper or need sleep this is a dont on the list any hotel in this area would be a dont first off this is located so close to the airport that you can hear planes landing and taking off. Not so bad if they wheren't so freaking loud. Also not everyone likes to be quite and likes to consider that someone else other than themselves wants to sleep and you can hear doors slamming all night. The breakfast isn't as nice as the pictures make it seem. The have cereal, two toast choices and a couple of muffins and coffee and juice that is all if you need something more go some place else. I didn't notice till I was checking out Sunday morning but apparently they let everyone from the neighborhood party in the parking lot. I went out to loud the car got hit on 4 times and had to move three glass beer bottles just to get out of the parking lot. This hotel does have some good parts the elevator does work does it look bad yes but it does run nothing a little cleaning wouldnt fix as for the rooms they are clean very very clean as in I could walk across the floor with bare feet and they not get black, plenty of towels and outlets and lights, and parking was plentiful and overall I would say if you can sleep throught anything this is a o.k place to stay if not you might not even want to stay in Kenner at all.

“An okay place to stay”

Front desk staff was okay. Not rude or friendly, just okay. The room was okay. I just wanted peace and quiet, that's all. It's not 3 or 4 star, so don't expect "red carpet" service.

“Nasty is too nice....”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2011

New paint over peeling sheet rock describes this place. At the entrance is a green, murky, nonworking fountain as a sign of things to come. No child locks at pool area. Hoses stretched out across walkway. Hot tub did not work, pool was dirty. Air conditioners leak on walkways making them green and slippery. Rooms are dirty, toilets don't like to flush, lights that don't work.

“It was okay...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2011

person found this review helpful

The hotel rooms aren't in the most updated conditions. The room I stayed in didn't have have a flat screen television, which I found odd cause the other rooms did (I suppose just bad luck!) The pool area was okay, cleanliness wasn't much of an issue. The elevator to the hotel was majorly outdated, looked like it was about to break down, and smelled kind of funky. The area surrounding the hotel was a pretty decent area, you had plenty of stores/places to dine that were literally one minute away. It was only 15 minutes away from New Orleans Downtown, and not any major traffic issues there. Overall...okay.
