Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter
Very noisy especially at night. Loads of street noise & we were on the 15th floor. Beds were not comfortable. Had sore neck & back the whole week were there. Otherwise it was a good hotel but if you want a good sleep maybe try something further away from The French Quarter
