Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor by IHG
Great A/C, cheap hair dryer, cheap/rough towels, poor shower head, but it is an older property in general. Club downstairs and cars speeding and thumping bass kept us up until after 3 am. BUT….. I do realize we were in NOLA, so it kinda makes sense.
