Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor by IHG
Our third room was lovely. The new manager Juan was highly accommodating. The first rooms had malfunctioning issues, one being a toilet. To be fair the building is older. But the suite upgrade was appreciated. The bed was firmer and comfortable. They need to upgrade to comforters and not just older ...
