Overall, my stay at Hotel Indigo New Orleans - French Quarter was a mixed experience. While the central location made it convenient for exploring the French Quarter, I found the room to be quite small and lacking charm. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful, which added a personal touch to my visit.

The hotel offers a welcoming drink at check-in, which was a nice touch. However, the absence of a pool was a letdown, as I had assumed it would be featured based on the photos.

My stay at Hotel Indigo was nice overall, but it did have its ups and downs. The staff was friendly and offered great local recommendations, which really added to the experience. However, I found the additional daily fee quite annoying and unnecessary, especially since other hotels in the area didn't charge that. The location was fantastic, but the facility is starting to show its age, which took away from the ambiance a bit.
