I have never stayed in a hotel so disgusting. This place is 20 minutes from downtown. It is a DUMP! Ok first, our reservations magically got cancelled and we ended up having to pay twice as much for the room, which after staying there I wouldn't even pay 1/8 of the price we did. We got there, the owners do not speak English, nor do they understand it. So we go to check out the room. One elevator isn't working because it couldn't pass the inspection, and the second one make loud sounds like its about to break, seriously a death trap. Oh, and it propbably takes 10 minutes for it to get to you. We get to the floor... half of the hallway has carpet the other doesn't, just the stuff underneath and the wooden carpet stay in place things with nails sticking out. In the room, dirtier than Bourbon street. The whole place reeks of Marijuana and there are some scary people staying there. Its is very unsafe and there are fights at night in the hallway that wake you up. The hotel owner said the last night of our trip that we could have 25% off in the morning when we check out. We go to check out, and guess what.. he wasn't on duty, so we couldn't receive the discount until he got back, but didn't know when that would be. Overall the grossest, scariest, and unsafe hotel I have EVER come across.

We traveled down for Mardi Gra.. We weren't looking to spend a lot of money because we didn't think we would really be in the hotel room. BIG MISTAKE. Upon arrival, our reservation was incorrect, as we were supposed to check out Monday, when actually it was supposed to be Tuesday. They fixed it, so whatever. This hotel is TRASH and the area around it is NOT OK!! We are young (21-24) and seriously we were probably the only people in the hotel that wasn't high, dealing drugs, or prostitutes. The hotel parking lot was filled with Mercedes', BMW's, and Cadillacs. I'm sure you can figure out what that means. We got off the elevator which barely made it without jumping every 5 seconds,and arrived on our floor. The carpet was completely ripped out in the hallway, and hallway smelled like straight up weed. Got to the room, noticed the microwave was not cleaned, there was a towel left on top of the shower rod, and the patio door was bolted so it could not slide, however it was NOT CLOSED ALL THE WAY, and there was no way to move it..

Every place was booked solid, there was no way to move hotels without getting a room at the Ritz Carlton for $700 a night. We went to the desk that evening to see if there was a different room available, after we were woke up by screaming and fighting coming from a room around us. The night clerk (who was sitting there with his eyes closed until we had to wake him) told us they were booked solid and there was no room to be moved to.

On the eve of check out day I went to the desk to complain. I had to wait in line behind three others that were also complaining. One lady said she had moved rooms three times since she has checked in, keys not working, and another checked in to a room with a half eaten muffin on the floor. I demanded 25% off the room which the "manager" said was fine after arguing with me, and it would be taken care of upon check out. I had showed him pictures that I had taken and he pretty much stood there putting in no input. We checked out around 4am, went to the desk, and the night clerk said we were "all set." We asked where our 25% reimbursement was, and he said he can not give it to us. When asked why, he said we have to talk to the manager, who comes in at 7am. We had to be at the airport at 6 so that wasn't an option. He basically said he can't do anything, and we would have to call later in the day. At this point, I don't feel like dealing with them anymore.

In a nut shell, DO NOT STAY HERE. If you are young and just looking for a cheap place to stay at PLEASE SPEND THE LITTLE BIT MORE and get somewhere else. We did not feel safe at this hotel, and law enforcement needs to keep an eye on what is happening over there. Of anything, the man and woman who I think were the managers were friendly during our stay, they checked us in, and answered some questions (like why the internet wasn't working, why there was no carpet, etc..) in a courteous way. You can tell it must be a family that runs this, and they all take part in it. This hotel needs to raise it's prices a little higher to keep the scum out, and do some serious renovating.

My sister and I stayed in this super dump Jan 10 - 17 2011
We found some guy smoking ( crack?) pretty sure thats what that was.
We had one towel to be shared between us. and when I went down the front to ask for another I was told they don't have any more WTF!!!!! its a hotel
Anyway when I saw the house keeping cart on the third floor I noticed 2 towels on it so I took them both lol
Hookers in the lobby, people yelling and screaming at each other til all hours of the night
The hotel had 2 elevators but only one worked ( sometimes)
Dont waste your money at this hole.....keep going

Ok after riding around for 2 to 3 hours looking for a place to stay for the weekend, it seemed impossible to we drove upon this hotel. The parking lot is filthy. So we went inside the lobby look very nice. We told the clerk we wanted to pay for two nights and asked if we could see a room. The room he should us was very well kept. So we got a room on the 4th floor. We went and O my gosh! The carpet was dirty, chairs had smoke burns in the them electric plugs didn't work I got sick to my stomach and threw up looking at this room. I went down to the lobby and requested a room change. He gladly changed the room to the 2nd floor. It wasn't any better. You could smell the loud scent of "weed" in the halls and loud noise. Please don't stay here. The next morning i woke up in time to catch housekeeping trying to enter into our room while we were sleeping. NO NO big mistake!!! They even had a dead snake in the parking lot. Lizards and all other type of reptiles crawled upon the walls. Waste of money, do yourself a favor and sleep in your car.lol..at least you'll have the extra cash. hope this helps the next person. Then you had to pay to use wi fi. and the t.v. only had 20 channels.
