2. for us) Arriving at the hotel valet area was the most stressful and difficult, so my advice is to arrive as early as possible before Canal gets to busy.

3. Depending the time you arrive it may be difficult to get near the entrance to unload because there is only a small area to drive up and with taxis and other people coming and going on canal street it is difficult.

4. Seeing as the most important part of a hotel is the bed, for me, it was difficult to justify paying that much for an uncomfortable spot to rest my head.

5. The parking situation can be difficult, we valeted and then we were leaving on Wednesday the staff in the front of the hotel expected us to take the shuttle to the satellite parking lot to retrieve our car, however we kindly persuaded them to go get it for us.

8. Now for the not so good, Prices everything is extremely expensive compared to other hotels I've stayed in in the Quarter there are hotels that offer free internet this isn't one of them in fact I have cell phone 3g through Att and My phone would not work the entire time I was in the room made communicating with friends rather difficult and they charge you for local calls also also beware of room service the price on the menu is not what you pay, I was looking at something for 12 bucks it ended up costing me 18 plus tip, also for a classy hotel we found there to be people sleeping in the hallways when we returned one night from watching a parade.

9. The rooms are decent size, but the beds are hard as a rock, making it difficult to sleep (as if it wasn't hard enough already).

"Not the hotel for families..or anyone who wants to actually sleep! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/14/2009 Vote

10. When I tried to find a staircase to use instead of the elevator, I found it difficult to find stairs because some were not well labeled, and I could not find a staircase that went from my floor (3) to the lobby.
