Located 9.5 miles from New Orleans Lakefront

“Location and budget align here, although expectations should be tempered. Recent reports suggest necessary washings are happening, despite any prior concerns. I think its best qualities lie in the attentive staff and a pragmatic approach to value in a pricey city.”
