I really enjoyed my stay at Crescent Palms, a clean and charming motel that offers a unique glimpse into local life in New Orleans. The staff were welcoming and helpful, making it a pleasant experience. However, the neighborhood had its questionable moments, especially at night. Overall, a great value for money if you're looking to avoid tourist traps.

My stay at this motel was a mix of good value and some downsides. While the location feels a bit sketchy, the rooms were very clean and spacious, offering a comfortable night’s sleep. The service was warm and welcoming, but be prepared for minimal amenities and breakfast options. Overall, it's a great budget find, but not ideal for those seeking modern comforts.

Crescent Palms has a clean and comfortable atmosphere, which is perfect for those seeking affordability and proximity to New Orleans without the tourist hustle. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making up for some shortcomings in the neighborhood's safety. While the rooms are spacious, they do need a few repairs. The location is convenient for public transport, but I recommend being cautious when out after dark.

The Crescent Palms Motel is a clean and budget-friendly option just a short distance from the French Quarter. The rooms are simple but spacious, and the service from Manager Kendal is exceptional—he goes out of his way to help guests. However, the location feels somewhat sketchy and is not ideal for those seeking luxury or extensive amenities.

The motel is a clean and basic spot ideal for those on a budget, but it's on the outskirts of the main attractions in New Orleans, so having a car is crucial. The staff is incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay, while the room amenities like a mini-fridge and microwave added convenience. However, the surrounding neighborhood may seem a bit off-putting for some, and the distance from the touristy areas requires a drive or long walks. Overall, it's a good value for money if you prioritize cleanliness and service over location.

I found this motel to be a mix of charm and simplicity. It's clean and well-kept, with decent-sized rooms, making it a nice budget option, especially for short stays. While it's not the most luxurious place and the area can feel a bit sketchy, you can't beat the value and comfort for the price. Just be prepared for basic amenities and limited parking.
