It was an o.k. hotel. The room was clean and everything in the room was working such as air conditioner, microwave etc. If I had to stay there again I would. The hotel was inexpensive and it felt safe being there.

Great hotel near lots of food and stores close in needed. Laundry mat next door to hotel so easy washing for travelers. Staff is top notch. Rooms are clean and serviced but not the Ritz - so don’t expect that. Simple, clean and affordable.

A true budget hotel! This place has all the most important parts: a strong cold AC, comfy bed, a working tv, and close to NOLA. After looking around the room, it is clean enough for my liking (of course more spot cleaning could be done) and I can say that I did not find any bugs of any sort. The front staff was EXTREMELY NICE, I wish I would have caught the name of the gentlemen that checked me in (I believe one was the boss and one was new). My only warning would be that I felt slightly nervous of the area and surrounding. Just be on high alert for your safety (but that’s anywhere)!

The staff when I checked was very nice! However after my on time check I asked if I could wait in the lobby for my uber and the gentleman behind the counter said that he is about to lock up the lobby any leave. So I couldn’t wait I had to wait I had to wait outside with luggage and all I could deal with the room with the price. Went to Walgreens and freshened up the place. But not being able to wait in the lobby after check out was not okay. And it got them the very low rating!

It felt like a safe room, though when we walked in it smelled heavily of cigarettes. Also, there was a diaper under one of the beds. It was a little gross but not the worst hotel I've ever stayed at for the price it was. The staff were very sweet and nice, helped with where to go for food and events happening. Free coffee in the lobby :)
