Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter
The room was smaller than I anticipated and have experienced with other Wyndham hotels, but it worked for my needs. Three family members had to share a room due to a last minute exit from another family member so the room I initially requested was only for 2 people but still smaller than what I am ...
