I stayed at the hotel for a night before a flight the next morning.

The good: checkin was uneventful and rapid. The public areas are clean with modern decor. The bedroom and bathroom were clean, and WIRELESS INTERNET WAS FREE. Though my room on the top floor looked over the pool and highway, no highway noise made its way to the room. The business center made printing boarding documents easy.

The not-so-good: The air conditioning unit was loud, the hallways (supposedly non-smoking) smelled of stale cigarette smoke, and the front desk wasn't able to provide me with a comb when I realized I had left my brush in the previous hotel room I had occupied.

Overall, the hotel is relatively inexpensive ($110) and an easy 5-10 minute drive from the airport. I'd stay again.

This hotel was very close to the airport, so it was convenient first and foremost. The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. The bar was very hip and cool, which was a fun place to hang out in the evening. The only complaint I have was with the wait staff in the restaurant. They weren't very attentive and it took a long time for them to cook the food (eggs & toast). The food was good though, when we finally got to eat it. I would recommend this hotel to anyone needing to stay in Metairie.

The hotel is very clean. They seem understaffed and worked off their feet, especially in the restaurant. The bar service is friendly and efficient. One great thing is the wireless internet - no problems. The only faults I had were that the door handle was built upside down (up for open) and the coffee machine leaked. Also could do with fridges and safes in rooms. There's not a lot nearby, a Best Buys next door and one or two good restaurants. Walmart is 15 mins walk and there is a cheap store over the road if you're brave enough to cross the road. Security is not hot... many a time I walked in with no-one on the desk or any other staff around.

You will hear it is because of the storm as to why the rooms are not up to par yet , it is nearly a year after. how the housekeeping staff cleans the room has nothing to do with storm. Hotel is going through a major ren job , Do not have sleep number beds but they do have very soft beds. Requested Refridgerator ( charge for it) but never got it. Substantial "access" charges even on local calls & 800# (.85 cents). Cable is limitied. Showtime is listed but didnt work, no comedy central , does have BET but only normal channels ( TNT, USA , Discovery, ) Coffee Pot in room but water smells so strong of Chlorine make sure you get a bottle of water. Air unit never shuts off just keeps blowing. also there is a balcony but furniture ( table , chair and lamp are blocking it) is in the way and the room is so small you cant move it over to get to balcony, so really just a large window that has a spot light on each balcony all night long that you cannot turn off.
there are better hotels..
