First the place was not clean. Some of the elevators were not operating properly.. The bell desk closed at 2 PM but check in was at 3 or 4 PM. Get to the room and it was not clean well. There was not a bar of soap in the building . The shower gel in bathroom was half used. When I request a bar is soap they sent me a handful of shower gel. The room also definitely needed a renovation. I had an cigarette burn on my headboard and it was a non smoking room and suppose to be a non smoking hotel.

This was the worse hotel I stayed in. From arrival. The valet driver was high and asleep. The front desk employee didn’t know English. The whole place was filled with smells of marijuana. The fitness room didn’t exist. The ice maker didn’t work. The electrical outlets didn’t work. I tried to ride the indoor gocarts and the worker wanted me to cashapp him the money instead of paying the hotel. They did a great job at uploading great pictures. No restaurants were open. 10 year old kids running around trying to fight adults. And i tool pictures and videos of it all. Worst ever! Bed didn’t even have bottom sheets. Too bad I can’t upload the videos.

When I got to my room on the New Orleans side, we encountered roaches inside the room and bathroom. The carpet was dirty, there were a couple of holes in the wall inside the bathroom, and the chair had spots on it. I didn't want to sit on it. I went to the front desk and complained about my issue, and she moved me to the Bourbon side (this is why I gave the front staff five stars, where the room was much better, but the carpet was dirty, the refrigerator stand was broken, and the TV was crooked due to the TV wall mount not correctly on the wall. I would not go back to stay; I was very disappointed.

The main lobby floor of the hotel was nice and renovated. The elevators are slow and dated. Going up to the second floor and above looked like it had not been updated since 1950. Reminded me of “The Shining”. The staff placed us (a couple with no kids) in an adjoining room next to a family with three kids. It was NOISY. Three young kids screaming at 7AM and a mother also screaming at the top of her lungs. I called the desk, who sent up security. Our neighbors did NOT like this. The woman in the room next to me proceeded to start SCREAMING in the hallway that she wanted to fight me. When I went outside to try to talk to her, she got in my face so close she spit on me. I went back to my room and tried to call both the front desk and emergency number and they did not answer the line. They knew EXACTLY what happened and didn’t want to deal with a real security issue. I was on edge the rest of the trip. I was annoyed being in the room and scared to leave. I didn’t know if this woman was so upset that she was going to harass or possibly injure me or my partner. I’m absolutely not blaming our neighbors. Having three young children is stressful. I’m blaming the poor hotel management. Booking a couple with NO KIDS in an unbearably noisy adjoining room next to a family with three screaming children and an angry mother AND THEN refusing to deal with a potential emergency situation? It’s irresponsible. Don’t stay here. Spend your money on a resort that’s a little more expensive.

Family friendly to many kids running wildly thru out the hallways. Banging on doors past midnight. Adults n children very loud uptil 2 am. Next day moved room 2 flights up much better. But beds n sheets all need make overs. No micro wave in rooms. I will never stay in the showboat again!! Did not eat or drink in hotel. Very dingy venues. Great entertainment for kids.

I give this hotel a zero-star rating! I strongly advise against booking a stay here. Save your hard-earned money and choose a place that truly values its guests. This hotel engages in deceptive practices, adding unauthorized fees to your credit card and wrongfully accusing guests of smoking in their rooms. We visited to celebrate my daughter's 10th birthday, and I genuinely regret not heeding the warnings from other reviewers. At 10 PM, we received a call from the front desk claiming that the smoke alarm in our room was detecting smoke. They mentioned sending someone to verify the situation, which I welcomed, as we do not smoke. However, management never arrived, and I assumed it was a false alarm, so I went to sleep. The next morning, during checkout, I was informed that a $250 smoking fee had been charged to my account. I repeatedly explained that we do not smoke, insisting that it must have been a technical error. The staff member at the front desk was unhelpful and merely provided me with an email to submit my complaint. After waiting an hour for a manager to appear, I was met with dismissiveness. The manager, Brinica, implied that I was lying and asserted that their smoke detectors are incapable of malfunctioning. After some insistence, she agreed to send maintenance to check for a faulty sensor, which I found curious given her earlier claim. When I requested to speak to maintenance, she declined, likely because no one had actually investigated the issue. 0/10
