Great stay within the NOLA warehouse District

Great hotel in the heart of NOLA warehouse district. Close to several attractions and the highway. Property was well maintained albeit slightly older. Rooms were comfortable and spacious. Complimentary breakfast provided was good. Valet parking although slightly expensive was decent and had quick response. Would recommend the hotel.

2/10 Poor

Absolutely Horrible – Filthy, Unsafe, and Overchar

This was hands down the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. First off, I was overcharged for a room that wasn’t even worth half the price. What I walked into was disgusting—filthy floors, stained sheets, and a stench that hit you the second you opened the door. The room felt like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. To make matters worse, in the middle of the night there was nonstop yelling, fighting, and screaming right outside my room. It was pure chaos—felt like I was in the middle of a street brawl. I didn’t feel safe at all, and there was no staff response or security presence to handle it. This place was nothing short of ghetto and completely unprofessional. Avoid this place at all costs unless you want to throw your money away and risk your safety. I wouldn’t stay here again if they paid me.

Not our kinda of location

First of all, hotel NOT as described. Loads of people congregated in their so called lobby, and their canteen as there is not a place called lobbying room. At the front door there is a sign "Soliciting is not allowed".. gulp that is one sign to tell you what kind of hotel it is. Walking into the hotel room, dark, dirty carpet and lift door is welcoming you as well as smell of dope. The story is not stop there, people congregation moved to the garden, laugh and talk so loudly until 3am. Reported it to the staff at 00:30 am and promised that i will be dealt with which was failed! We requested to cancel the rest of our stay(we booked 3 nights).. hotels.com agent tried to do it for us, only to get answered no and the phone put down. There were also loads homeless slept on the street nearby..Also we have a car to park, parking valet is USD 52 per night. When we asked if there is any public parking nearby, the receptionist just said none. In fact, there is a public car park for USD 10 per night 100 mtrs away. Also can park for free on the street from 8pm to 7am. We so disappointed with this hotel. We moved to a better hotel at the end and we did not feel safe and couldnt sleep. On the good note, room is clean and spacious..

Pay the little extra to stay elsewhere.

Pictures are not what our room looked like. Needs an update. Shower curtain too short so will flood bathroom if you dont watch it closely. Air either runs freezing or muggy. Toilet seat loose and flimsy. Water pressure in shower is INSANELY hard. It hurts your face. Hallway smelled like fish the entire time. Only gave two towels for 5 night stay and ran out one night when we needed more. Went to get toilet paper and the woman couldn't find any so they said theyd bring some to the room..never came and we were too tired to go back down so we ended up just using paper towels instead. I understand that the rooms are cheaper than others but not by much and it shouldnt compromise basic needs like toilet paper and towels and a shower cirtain.long enough to hang inside the tub. Flodding the floor is a hazard and unsafe. They sell shower curtains at the dollar store. You need to do better Sonesta. Being close to the convention center is the only plus for this hotel.

Uncomfortable sleep

Overall the hotel stay was ok. It will definitely not be our 1st choice next time we visit. The room itself was clean. I would not depend sleeping comfortably on the sofa bed It was awful. Very old thin mattress. You can practically see the springs through the bed. My friend said the bedroom mattess was uncomfortable as well. Luckily we had an airmatress and placed it on top of the sofa bed. They did not have clean wash cloths to replace our 2 inital ones for the whole weekend. Chelsea on night shift was so nice to do the best she could making our stay comfortable; giving us extra blankets. The valet guys were nice as well, "On night shift"
