Don't trust this place -- they will cancel your room WHILE you're waiting at the counter to get one that's clean. (My mistake was asking for one that wasn't on the ground floor and right by the back door -- not ideal for a woman traveling solo.) This actually happened to me. It was a totally sold-out weekend in New... More

Nothing was right at this hotel. The first room we were given had a bathroom door that was jammed/ unable to close. The toilet paper holder fell off the wall. The towel holder/ shower door handle was already hanging off its holder. The place felt musky. We asked for another room and were given one right by the elevator. At... More

My wife and I decided to stay stay at the O'Keefe as a last minute choice during Jazz Festival. Much to our surprise, we found the hotel to be delightful.While obviously a budget conscious hotel we found the rooms clean - with all necessary amenities including breakfast, downtown location, blow dryer, iron etc. etc. On the morning before our last...

I just cut my planned multi-night stay to one. The property bills itself as "under renovation," which means peeling paint above the front desk, unpainted drywall patches in the lobby, and wrinkled, worn carpeting in public areas. My 4th floor room was neglected and unclean. The carpeting had nonspecific stains in spots. The comforters had cigarette burn holes in them,... More

My friend and I had a HORRIBLE stay in this hotel. (Room 314 April 24th 2012) Our room was infested with bed bugs. We called the front desk around 3:45 am and he told us he would call us back in ten minutes. In that time we were able to catch two live bugs and put them in a bag... More

Stayed here April 23-27, 2012. Cheapest option with my 3 priority points and the place matches the rest of the city: kind of ugly, smelly and need of repairs. Aparently they recently treated for bedbugs as we didn't encounter any. Only one ice machine was working, our coffee pot quit after one day, the a/c worked sporadically and we had... More

The location is wonderful, close to street car line and within walking distance of the French 1/4. I was a little disappointed that ice machines were only located on every other floor. When I asked for directions to a specific resturant the clerk said " it's pretty complicated, here's their phone number" Location and rate are great

We are still in the hotel, leaving tomorrow am for a cruise. We haven't seen any bugs and they fumigated the whole hotel on Tuesday. Maybe they got all the bugs before we got here as we overheard a housekeeping supervisor explain what they had done to get rid of the bugs. The fumigating should keep them away. (Shades of... More

My girlfriends and I chose to stay at the O'Keefe because of the great location and great price. Plus, it had a pool! We checked in (note they charge $20 for early check-in), and I promptly took an afternoon nap. The place seemed a little dirty, but I dealt with it given the great rate compared to other hotels in...
