The front desk staff was very welcoming. The lady at the front desk recommended the Hotel’s restaurant for dinner. We checked out other options and decided to go back to the hotel restaurant. So glad we did! The food and cocktails were outstanding. Highly suggest the Gumbo, burger and fried okra! Don’t bother saving room for dessert, plan to take it back to the room. It’s worth a midnight snack!

The hotel experience was great and the property was very well maintained. Our only issue was the street sound that is noticeably loud inside of the hotel room as the hotel is in the heart of downtown. I would suggest requesting a room on a higher floor to help muffle some of the sounds as on the 2nd floor it was absolutely deafening from 11pm to 2am. There are several top tier restaurants and bars within walking distance.
