Maspero’s Exchange

When we arrived to the property I walked in to check into our room and front desk was not happy. She seemed annoyed I was checking in, on her phone the whole time. The machine wouldn’t let her make two keys and she was complaining about that and saying they need to tell everyone the problems they’re having before they arrive. The room we first got was absolutely disgusting! Smelled and very old. I couldn’t walk on the carpet. I left my shoes next to my bed and put them on when I got out of bed. Our heat didn’t work either. Woke up and was freezing. We left early morning and when we arrived back I told front desk and she was very rude about it. Told me I couldn’t switch rooms, called I’m assuming the manager and he came down and switch my room. He didn’t acknowledge me or anything. No sorry or anything. The second room we got was so much better. New beds, new carpet and nice tv. No complaints on the second room we had! We got clean towels every morning which was nice. The last day we did ask for toilet paper and was told someone would bring it and no one ever brought us any. They are doing construction and the new rooms are updated and pretty nice! Basic, no phones or coffee or anything like that, but they’re nice.

This place is all right, all right, all right! The Old Jail is a gem, if you like original old buildings you’re in it for a treat! The Police Jail has a lot old charm and character, situated in Tremé / LaFitte neighborhood. Go to breakfast or brunch to Leo’s Bread or Flour Mood! Walkable distance to New Orleans Streetcars on Canal Street or take the city bus just around the corner! -Pierre
