The Royal Sonesta New Orleans
Room was okay, hotel upgraded us to Balcony for $400 but it ended up $551 with so many charges. Check in time at 4 PM is unreasonable during events, also there is no way to park near the hotel. Drag luggage to the hotel. We just feel the upgrade was just worth it. For the money we paid Expedia charge ...
