I booked Andrew Jackson for a last minute trip last weekend. I researched the website, so even though I paid for the hotel through hotels.com, I knew to expect a $50/night parking for valet, knowing we needed to have $100 set aside for that. On checkin, the person said we owed $200 - for what we have no clue. We thought perhaps a deposit, but it hasn't come back, and we have pics on how the room was left, which was fine. My daughter paid it, because what are you going to do at that point? But it cost them going on a tour, which started the trip with disappointment. On checkout, the valet said it would be an hour to get the car (!!!). The room was fine. We knew to expect that, and thin walls, because of research. So, never again. I don't like bait and switch dealing. I've never had that experience with a hotel before and I've traveled to NOLA since 1985. And never through hotels.com which I use for nationwide business travel regularly.
Don't be fooled by the nightly room rate. The Andrew Jackson lies.
