Blake Hotel New Orleans

Avoid staying at this hotel if at all possible. I stayed here years ago (in 2018) and had a fairly good experience but this last time I stayed in October was absolutely awful. I arrived in the late morning/early afternoon and it was too early for my room to be ready, so I gave them my contact information and went out to get some food. I returned at check in time and was told my room was still not ready. So I sat in the lobby and waited. And waited. And waited. No one checked on me, no one gave me an update, nothing. Nearly 2 hours later, I went and checked again and was told my room was still not ready. I was running up on the time for an event and I still had to get ready so I asked them what my options were. They said they could give me an inferior room, not reimburse me the difference, and that was it. I took the room because I needed to get ready for the event but when I walked in, I wished I had not. It was disgusting. The bathroom was in rough shape, there was a leak in the ceiling into the tub that just dripped water down at a constant pace, and it rained that night and I heard a leak in the main bedroom as well. Amenities were abysmal and the room did not look updated at all. I slept so poorly and left as soon as I could in the morning. Would not recommend anyone stay at this hotel.

The staff were nice and the location was excellent.

My room had some real issues. I just used my room as a place to sleep, so I did not complain to the front desk. I did complain to corporate with photos that showed: (1) dirty shower, (2) dog food on the floor, (3) broken curtains, (5) tarnished tub and sink, (6) makeup all over the patched bathroom door, (7) what appeared to be rust and mold on the bathroom, and (8) a dresser that looked like it was flood salvaged and not restored. Honestly the dog food on the floor after two housekeeping visits freaked me out the most.

The location

The property was very dated from the 80s

Location

Woke up my carpet was soiled with water

That it has a microwave and fridge

there was no phones so we don’t have access to call them when we need the rooms cleaned. our card keeps not working. Water shower pressure was so low..

Location was good it was close to most things.

The hotel had a odour.
