    Room with a bit of a closed smell, dust on the table where the beds were, shower water leaks on the external floor of the bathroom area, details that can be adjusted

    Great location, I was with a friend and we asked her on the day of check-in if we could change the room to two single beds, and we were promptly assisted! secure parking and good breakfast!

    Cleanliness is not up to par. While settling in the room, I almost cut my foot on the broken glass, which was overlooked by cleaning staff. Fortunately, we were promptly provided with another , cleaner room. Check in /out and breakfast at another location- at Prytania Park Hotel. Though very close, it might be unpleasant to go for a breakfast in a bad weather. Breakfast itself is very basic- just yogurt, canned fruits and cereal. Not enough hangers in the armoire. The area has a lot of dilapidated and abandoned buildings. The key card has full info about hotel, so if a card gets stolen a thief would know exactly were to go.

    Nice hotel in a very quiet area. Private parking at Prytania Park hotel. The room had everything you might need- AC and sealing fan, coffee maker, mini-fridge, microwave, safe, iron with iron-board, hair dryer. The bed was comfortable with clean linens. Spacious bathroom with toiletries, including makeup removals. The staff was very friendly and helpful. When checking out, reception lady offered us to order a taxi to the airport, which we gladly accepted. All in all, we enjoyed our stay.

    The breakfast was nonexistent when I checked for it at 8 AM. We killed a roach, which is to be expected in a low-lying city. Thankful it was only one!

    Love this section of town and the value of The Oaks. The close walk to the streetcar was perfect. Wish I'd known about the Jazzy pass earlier, because we used the streetcar a lot!

    There was an armoire for hanging clothes, but only a couple of hangers, which wasn't great for us since my husband and I were in town for a wedding and couldn't hang all of our dressy clothes properly. Check in was at another one of the properties and so was breakfast, which was fine, but it meant having to walk over there in the morning for instant oatmeal and bagels, and it was outside and some mornings it was pretty windy in that courtyard. (Let's be real, though, you want to go out for breakfast or save room for some other yummy stuff anyway). I was very busy during my stay, so it didn't matter to me, but I didn't get a wifi password at check-in.

    Great location just a block from St. Charles Ave. (Streetcar, restaurants, stores) and you get the feeling of a real neighborhood without staying in a random Airbnb. You can walk a few blocks to a neighborhood park. Our room had a wonderful front porch and high ceilings; the courtyard was a nice place to rest in the afternoon. The staff was very friendly (and helpful when I accidentally locked myself out late at night) The bed was comfortable and the water in the shower was hot - no water-saving shower heads here! It was like taking a bath standing up. This was a great place to stay if you're visiting and won't be spending much time in your room. But it had everything needed; ironing board and iron, and nice toiletries; a continental breakfast. I used to live nearby, so that was one of the reasons I chose this hotel for the visit and I'd stay here again.

    Room wasn't swept, floor was gross, couldn't walk without shoes/socks because dirt would stick to your feet. Smells moldy. Bed felt like it was going to collapse every time we moved, it would shift. Uncomfortable mattress. Nowhere to place a suitcase to unpack it, other than bed.

    Location is fantastic for what we needed. Wanted to check out the Quarter and also needed to be up by Loyola, this was perfectly placed between the two, plus great eateries nearby. Staff was friendly and accommodating when we needed to keep luggage there after checkout time, before our flight.

    The only downside was the office and breakfast being a little walk from the building but I didn't have any issues and it's good to get some steps in in the morning.

    The staff was super friendly, I was even given a few recommendations of what to do while I was in town. The room itself was spacious and inviting and the bed was so comfy!

    I changed from Prytania Oaks to the Prytania Park Hotel (issue with mold)

    I was initially saying a Prytania Oaks, and it smelled of mold. I am very allergic and I was about to check out immediately. However, the guy at the reception, Emir, very kindly moved me to the other hotel they have (Prytania Park hotel) and they gave me a big, clean, safe and lovely room. I recommend staying at the Park Hotel and avoiding the Prytania Oaks.

    location is excellent, with plenty of restaurants and cafes in the area. Breakfast is cold and poor. I used to have tea in my room, and then walk to a lovely French cafeteria for a great breakfast. The personnel at the reception (Emir) went far and beyond to help me find the room I liked better and felt comfortable. Prytania Park Hotel is safe, and absolutely nicer than the Oaks, even if it looks the opposite from the pictures on their website.

    nothing at all

    the staff were extremely pleasant. the room i originally was placed in didn’t have a working cooling unit, but when i spoke to the front desk, they immediately went to work to get someone to try to fix it. since it was the weekend and there wasn’t a maintenance person, they just upgraded us to a king room that did have a working cooler! they made sure we were taken care of despite the inconvenience. now THAT is good service
