For anybody looking for possible room blocks -
I just got back from traveling to New Orleans with my parents so I could check out some venues while also staying at hotels looking for room blocks... we obviously picked the wrong hotel ... New Orleans Loew's....
Obviously, traveling with my parents, we were going to need 2 beds! So, we booked two beds, the day of we called and confirmed our 2 beds, when we arrived they gave us a key and said it was for 2 beds! WRONG, as soon as we walked in, 1 BED! After being put on hold and arguing with the concierge, they said they could do nothing but make out the couch!! After walking around all day I did not want to sleep on the couch, which was NOT comfortable. My dad was upset, I didn't sleep good, needless to say, they lost our business for possibly blocking lots of rooms and getting business from us. Whose to say that when all our guest come in from out of town and they need two beds, they will end up sleeping on a couch too?!? I don't think so! I hate to sound horrible, because the hotel is beautiful, and the majority of the people were nice, but that was ridiculous.
