The hotel it nice enough. We had a pretty view from our room. The night staff wasn't the friendliest but I'd probably be grouchy too if I had to deal with so many drunks. But the valet and parking situation is out of hand. The cars waiting to be valeted took up the entire block, which made Canal street even more congested than usual. The valet was polite, but he told me we'd have to self park around the corner because they were so backed up. He said it would be cheaper. So we braved Bourbon Street traffic to go to the garage he suggested. It was full. We got a spot at a nearby garage because the attendant tool pity on us, but it was definitely more expensive than the hotel valet. I'm not sure if there was an event that caused all the chaos but it was pretty frustrating and caused us to be very late to a party.
