Marina Inn & Suites Chalmette-New Orleans

This is a cheap motel… I get it. But even by cheap motel standards this was not good. 1) No Bedspread. Just a sheet and an old thin blanket that looked like it was bought at an estate sale, had several cigarette burns in it as well, both of them. 2) The tub had what looked like Vomit or poop let on the side, but on further investigation, it was an old plastic tub with more cigarette burns. 3) Not clean. The carpet looked like it has not been changed in decades, wife literally wore shoes to walk on it no matter the time of night. Wouldn’t put her bare feet on the carpet. 4) Breakfast advertised was coffee and a store bought muffin. OK, that’s not unusual, but what it was advertising “breakfast” 6:30-9 and at 7am they were out of everything. Several other things People outside the door loud but that’s not as much the fault of the motel. The door lock was about to come off the door and made it hard to actually get in the room. At the coups de gras… You get this gem for the cheap motel bargain basement rate of $150 per night!!! I didn’t do my research and booked a hotel that was $150 a night with a vision of at least a La Quinta or Holiday Inn style accommodation. This was an old, outdated, worn out, mismanaged, underachieving in every way seedy motel charging $150 a night! Wow! I have stayed in a Drury with amazing pool and hot tub with kickback in the evening and a full breakfast in the morning for less than $100 a night. Oh… speaking of hot tub. It is in the photos, but don’t believe it. The hot tub is just a concreted in hole with a table over it and the pool is about the size of a large hot tub. Not exaggerating. It’s like an I. Ground version of the bladder pools at Wal Mart. About 5 could fit in the pool at once. * Now for some positives. The bed was actually comfortable The water flow was old school. Not the low flow you usually get. The staff was very nice

No we was not treated nicely at this properties I did not enjoy my trip I had to miss an event everybody was rude to us and I have no idea why I will never be visiting there again

It was a wonderful experience as usual there. Anytime I’m in the area this is where I stay. Room is always clean and I can just relax in the quiet.
