Midtown Hotel - Downtown New Orleans
Wouldn’t come here again. Bathroom and toilet sucked and you don’t even get hand soap for the sink…. Also the bathroom fan barely works.

AC Hotel by Marriott New Orleans French Quarter
The room was lovely in all respects except for sound insulation. You could hear people talking in the hallways and music from outside the hotel across the street. This noise level interfered with my sleep.

We arrived during the French Quarter Festival a major annual event the hotel knew was happening to find every street to the property closed. Spent over an hour driving in circles ...
