disappointed
I was attacted to the W French Quarter because of its four-star rating and its location in the heart of the French Quarter. The location is good, I’ll give it that, but the quality of the hotel is lacking. The front office folks were very friendly and accomodating, but the rest fo the hotel was not up to par in my eyes. My biggest complaint was the size of the room and the bathroom. But I will say that my fellow traveler had a very spacious room. So the bottom line is that room size varies significantly in this hotel. My main compliant dealt with cleanlines and attention to detail. Upon check-in, the bellman and I discovered food in the mini-frig left by the previous person. The bellman gave me a split of Veuve from the mini-frig in an attempt to make up for that oversight by the cleaning people. There was a tray of snacks on the end table (that functioned as the mini-bar). They looked like they had been there for quite a while - covered with a scum of some sort. The bathroom never felt quite clean to me. My soap dish was not cleaned from day to day. I know not to expect clean sheets everyday, but I would expect clean pillow cases if there was evidence of my eye makeup on them. I don’t think I’ll go back.

Disappointed :(
Service was great, but the level of cleanliness was definitely not. I’ve always been a fan of the W chain, but this was not like the others.

Very Cool Place
Very nice, multilevel small terraces and small pool makes for a very classy little place. The bed pads were thick and soft and unbelievably luxurious! Can’t wait to stay there again...
Traveler's tip on nightlife
On the French Quarter: We found that you’ve got to pace yourself. Don’t try to see it all in one evening; makes for too much walking. Just pick a nice bar or two, relax a bit; find a low key restaurant for a relaxing meal of local seafood, then follow your ears to a music hall with good live music. Makes for a great evening!
