    I've had an enjoyable stay on vacation. The breakfast was varied with muffins and meat, as example, and had all you need. The bed was big, and the room itself was large. The location turned out to be good, short walk to main attractions of New Orleans and French Quarter, trolley, convention center, restaurants, casino and WWII museum and nearby Restaurants.
