“The Iris Motel struck me as a place where location trumps all: proximity to the freeway and bike paths makes getting around New Orleans surprisingly easy; a real advantage. What stands out to me is the dedicated management, which seems essential to smoothing out some operational kinks; the rooms themselves, while clean, appear to have a few quirks that could use ironing out. With attention to detail, The Iris Motel has the potential to be a hidden gem for budget-conscious travelers.”
