Just completed a nice 3-day stay. Location is great, with an easy walk to the French Quarter. It is as good or better than the many Marriott Courtyards that I have stayed at. I had a nice corner room 415 which faced the street and not the inner courtyard. The corner room was much bigger than my co-workers regular room, so ask for a corner room if you want a little extra space.

I had a little trouble sleeping due the street car passing by. Not that it was particularily noisy, I just seemed to wake up to that sound for some reason.

If you are used to staying at Marriott Courtyards, this hotel will meet your expectations. I paid $98 per night which seemed pretty reasonable for a downtown hotel.

This hotel has a good location for the French Quarter, RiverWalk and French Market. The rooms are not huge. There was a daily breakfast buffet for $9.95. I didn't eat it, but it seemed pretty cheap. There is a hotel bar, but it rarely had anyone in it. Overall, I was happy with the stay for the price.

This was a wonderful no frillies hotel room. We were lucky enough to get the best room in the house with a awesome balcony. It is just the right distance from the action.

This hotel has a great location. It is one block from Canal and Bourbon St. the rooms are a little small and they are a little loud because they all face inward (with a window facing the inside of the hotel) to a 6 or 7 story atrium. Two of the three nights I woke up to loud talking or yelling???? from the atrium.
I still rate the hotel above average because it is very clean and it has a great location. The staff was also very nice...... laid-back, casual..... but nice. I am not a very demanding traveler. I just want a clean room in a safe convenient location, and this fit the bill.
If you are downtown for a conference, YOU MUST GO OUT AND SEE THE 9TH WARD!!!!!!!! Downtown is totally put back together, but you are not getting remotely the whole story of the city till you see outside the downtown area!!!!!! I was at a conference but took a break to tour the 9th ward and it was one of the best things I did on the trip. I was much more patient with the hotel staff knowing what many of them are going through!
