My new favorite hotel, convenient for walking places, clean, comfy, check in was quick, room was clean, shower was great, towels were big and comfy, coffee was quick and delicious , the peacock room is so cute and all of the food was so so good. Black out curtains made it nice and dark. A little bit of street noise but didn’t keep us awake. The hotel is pet friendly and we loved petting all the 4 legged guest. We will be back for sure.

Room was nice, a little worn but fine - view was great, valet staff were very helpful with parking (note that hotel has none on-site). The Peacock Room has incredible bartenders ready to share with you a cocktail history of the city, but coming back later to eat we found it overwhelmed and had to leave after no service. The restaurant on-site is also fantastic. Overall only a few things to improve on, great location in the Warehouse District, easy walk to the French Quarter, SuperDome, etc.
