Super 8 – New Orleans

I stayed overnight at this hotel which was ok for a night. The customer service was good. I had a smooth check in. There was a vending machine on each floor which had a pretty good food selection. They stated they have swimming pool, continental breakfast and workout room (I didn’t utilize any of that.)
The hotel had 3 floors and I was on 2^nd floor and I can hear everyone on 3^rd floor walking. It was squeaky. The room came with microwave, refrigerator, modern tv but old furniture and curtains. The bathroom was tiny. The slso room had a old balcony.
But overall I had a comfortable rest.

What a dump!!! Don’t even consider this hotel! Booked a room with 2 double beds smoking and got put in a room with a King bed no smoking! It was filthy and stunk like wet dirty dog! I didn’t even way to touch anything so I say on the chair which i stuck to from some grime like body oil. We called they front desk to say we were not going to stay and was told they had a nicer room we could have. I said then you should have put us there first we are leaving. Disgusting! Basically a dope dealing dump! Red Roof Inn near the airport great clean rooms friendly staff and comfy beds!

Right next to I-​10. Neighborhood is not so good. Have to drive at least 3 miles for food.
It provides you with basic needs. Be prepared for the dirty carpet though… AC is loud, but I don’t mind.
Front desk ladies are very helpful.
FYI Not pet-​friendly, free wifi, free continental breakfast.

Decent place out in the neighborhoods, right next to I10; not fancy, clean and comfortable. People call the neighborhood sketchy but staff pays a lot of attention to security. We ate at «Louisiana Pride» about a mile further into the neighborhood, had a great meal (5 lbs boiled crawfish) and talked to some great people that live there. Super 8 is about a 15 minute drive to catch a streetcar on either Canal line during commute times.
Room had a bed, shower, microwave, refer, table and chairs. Considering that we spent our days streetcaring, eating, kayaking and drinking, what more do you need?

Area not the greatest & I was kind of scared when I merge off the interstate to get to hotel but the entire three days wasn’t as bad I thought & I felt pretty safe during the day, everything worked & was clean, for the price it’s unbeatable. If you are looking for an upscale area this is definitely not the place you want to stay at because the area is kind of run down & the hotel is next to an abandon building & it’s not close to restaurants or shops. But if that’s doesn’t bother you I’d give it a try.

Decent. Very nice check in/​out. Simple breakfast. Our room had a table to eat on and microwave. We heard a little noise but not any big deal. Close to the hwy for getting to town to see tourist spots.

Not going to lie, the neighborhood is a little sketchy. HOWEVER, the staff here is AMAZING. They are the sweetest and have helped us out so much while staying here. The rooms are clean, the pool is lovely, the free breakfast isn’t anything to write home about but it’s decent, and they have a nice little gym. Angela has been so accommodating and is always in a wonderful mood!

I was planning our first trip to New Orleans and wanted to stay outside the a French Quarter. This place fit the bill with their pricing and amenities. Our room was clean and they had some nice supersized New Orleans photos on the wall. One thing about the room I didn’t like was even though it was non smoking there was a hint of it. Most likely from the floors below. We stayed on the third floor. Also in order to let light in you have to open your curtains but hello! Everyone can see you! They need sheer curtains as well to allow privacy while letting light in. The rooms were dark for this reason. Their Continental breakfast was alright but hey its included! When we first arrived I felt the area was a little sketch but it ended up being not that bad after all. We stayed here for three nights and had no problems. They have covered parking which is also nice since it rained one night and day we were there. If you come later though at night you may miss out and need to park in the back which is uncovered. The front desk clerks were nice as well. I give them a solid B.

This place exceeded well beyond my expectations. First, it’s not in the greatest of areas, but once you get over the location everything else is a go. I came down for a wedding and without my knowledge during two festivals so pretty much all hotels were booked. I initially hesitated booking, but thanks to a discount offered through my job, I said why not? Lol. I was able to get a double room which was remodeled and looks very modern. Secondly, I didn’t hear a thing!!! It’s right by the highway, but I had no noise complaints whatsoever. I slept like a baby. And lastly, the ladies working the front desk are amazing! Especially Angela, please give her a raise, a promotion, something!!! She was very accommodating and bubbly.

Cheap, Clean, and Safe!
Angela, the Front Desk Agent was super nice and was very welcoming. Free breakfast is also included. And just one bus ride to connect to street car to take you to the French Quarter or the Garden District.

The AC was super noisy and the room did not have a window! !!
Can you believe it for $ 60 a night and old room with no window on the second floor and a super noisy A.C. which doesn’t let you sleep.

So my family and I are originally from Az and decided to take a fun vacation and explore Louisiana. I ended up finding reviews about this Super 8 in New Orleans and my husband and I decided that we would book a room for us for a night while we stayed in New Orleans. The room was pretty descent in my opinion. Some little dings here and there but nothing fancy shmancy that we were expecting in our room. There were only three minor problems we had and one of them I didnt even notice until my husband pointed it out the day we checked out. The first thing was the old television we had in our room; while turned on, half of the screen had weird fuzzy horizontal lines and no matter what channel I turned it too it was always like that. The second minor issue was that our bath tub wasn’t draining water very well so within 5 minutes of taking a shower, the bath tub was filled up to our ankles. And the last issue that I didn’t even notice at all was that our room was slanted! No wonder why I was having a headache and my husband was feeling a bit nausea’s while we stayed there for the night. It felt like we were in a fun house and when I recognized the slant even more I started feeling woozy and light headed.
It was pretty weird having our room be slanted a bit, but it is worth sleeping there for the night especially since we saved money for the night there instead of a really expensive hotel. The décor on the outside of the Super 8 is very beautiful and the staff was very friendly and super sweet towards my little tired and cranky girl. Sadly we ended up missing the breakfast they provided so I didn’t get to experience what they were serving. But, I am very VERY grateful that there were no bed bugs and I didn’t see one roach in our room. Even though this Super 8 is in a somewhat sketchy and run down area, I would recommend this place if anyone needs a night of sleep and wants to save some money.

This super 8 is by far the best super 8 I have ever stayed at. They have a really big breakfast (waffles, toast, cereal, pastries, fruit), the rooms are spacey, the common areas are nicely decorated and cozy and the staff is extremely friendly. The area is not the best, but if you have a car you are definitely fine.

Super 8 was really SUPER! I think that it was the best deal we got in US during this trip!
The room was extremely clean, tidy and was nicely decorated. We also enjoyed the breakfast a lot. The personnel was friendly, too. The place also had an own security guard.
The only minus was that the pool didn’t open at 10 in the morning as it was meant to — and therefore we didn’t have a chance to take our last drop in the water before heading to Texas! Too bad, ’cause the sun was hothothothothot!

I stayed here for a week while visiting New Orleans for pleasure.
Pros:
–Cheap
–Safe
–Free, high-​quality wi-​fi
Cons:
–Not walking distance to city attractions. Must pay for rental car, taxi, or take the bus (which was terrible).
–Noisy. Hotel is right next to the interstate (look at Google Maps if you don’t believe me), and the traffic noises can be heard in the rooms, even at night. The maids also wheel big carts up and down the hallways starting early in the morning, which makes a lot of noise.
–Hard beds and neck-​breaking thick pillows
–Bad breakfast. Long lines and a very monotonous/​low quality menu.
–Neighborhood right around hotel is very ugly and dangerous.
Final notes:
–This hotel would be a much better value if they had a free shuttle van to take guests into the city. Even if it only ran once every two hours, it would be worth it.
–A couple hundred bucks to install extra waffle makers and beverage machines would cut down the breakfast lines and make it not such an ordeal.
–I wouldn’t stay here again unless the management made significant improvements. (i.e. — More comfortable beds, free shuttle, better breakfast, better soundproofing in rooms) My sleep quality was bad, and it was a hassle getting into the city from the hotel.

Good value, comfortable and clean, friendly staff. Not a place for you if you want an upscale neighborhood and lodging, but it’s fine if you just want a clean, basic place to stay. Free parking, free breakfast, free wi fi. They also have a small fitness room and a pool. Reception desk employee was very friendly at check-​in. Our maid, Ms. Cathy, left us a cute note thanking us for being «clean people».
Food: Breakfast wasn’t anything fancy (frosted flakes, raisin bran, toast with jam or butter, waffles and syrup or butter, juice, coffee, pastries, and some yogurt), but was ok for getting something in your stomach.
Room: Bed was firm but not hard. Pillows were ok. Room was clean. Microwave oven, fridge, TV, coffee maker included in our room (king bed deluxe). Bathroom was basic but clean and in good condition. It was pretty quiet and we were able to get a good rest. Our room was one room away from the elevator, so that also helped it be quiet. I saw someone else’s review saying that their room had no windows. Our room had a window looking out the front of the motel. Maybe that’s because we had a king «deluxe» room?
Plenty of free parking (they give you a paper permit). You’ll have to drive to the French Quarters or just about any other tourist attraction, but you’ll still save money overall since this place is much cheaper than the places over in the French Quarter (and much quieter too probably). It is sort of a pain driving into the French Quarter because of the traffic, at least it was over this past Thanksgiving weekend, but maybe it was unusually crowded because of holiday vacationers and people coming for the annual Bayou Classic football game.
Would stay here again to save some money.

Thank goodness for Unilocal!My friend and I decided on a last minute get a way to New Orleans. Little did we know some neuroscience conference was going on so every mo-​fo hotel was booked. This is the closest hotel I could find that wasn’t over $ 200 a night, or booked solid.
The reviews were good on Unilocal and on
so I booked a room. It’s just like everyone said, in a weird neighborhood, kind of old, but fine. And a $ 20 cab ride to Bourbon Street. The only complaint I would have is housekeeping has no regard for the do not disturb sign on your door, and won’t even listen when you say come back later. They walked in on us two out of our four days. But the two people we encountered working the front desk were so great and friendly.
I would not go out of my way to stay here again, but if I found myself in the same situation with nowhere else to stay I certainly would come here again. It’s cheap with free wifi, and free continental breakfast each morning.

You get what you pay for. Okay if you are just looking for a place to rest your head, but be careful. The bathroom was dirty and they do not change the sheets everyday, they just straighten it. As I was packing up to leave I saw one baby roach.

As the other reviews say, this motel is just right for the price you pay. The surroundings are not pleasant, but all the hotel, and the pool are built in a way you won’t see it from any windows. The bad part is that there is no window towards the outside, and the result is that the bedrooms and breakfast room are very dark.
Clean and calm place, though.

No, this is not a super fantastic part of town, but it seemed safe. No, this is not a super deluxe hotel, but it’s clean, affordable, and the staff are friendly. No, they don’t have an extensive menu of room service or huge breakfast buffet, but they do offer a free meal of breads, pastries, and cereals every morning.
If you are looking for a fancier hotel that’s near all the action, you may want to consider staying somewhere else. But considering this motel is situated near a highway (though you couldn’t tell from inside your room), the cleanliness, and the price, it’s well worth it to stay here and make that drive into town. I mean, it’s only 10 minutes away anyways.
