New Orleans post Katrina looked better than this “hotel”. The pictures online did not accurately show what a garbage dump this place was. We originally booked a 3 night stay and after one night we had to check out immediately the next morning. And then they proceeded to charge me for the full price of the stay even though we only stayed one night. Sleeping in your car would be a better option than staying at this place. You’ve. Been. Warned.

I would have slept in my truck instead of here.

Arrived at Sandpiper to find urine on toilet seat and blood splatters on sheets. Management was kind and helpful and moved us to new room. New room had dog poop (a lot of dog poop) on the enclosed patio dirt area. The room smelled of feces. Management was contacted again and we were promised a full refund. Spoke with owner and he was very apologetic. I was not going to post this review because I know it will hurt the owner;s business; however, promises were not kept and after waiting 9 days I have not received the promised credit to my credit card.
Urine on toilet seat. Bathroom was not cleaned prior to check in.
Dog poop in room's private courtyard, outside glass patio sliding door.
Tub in first room we were checked into.

Not bad, but not Great!

The property is run down but it looks like they are working to freshen it up. We didnt feel completely safe with only a doorknob to lock the door. The employee unlocked the door without knocking in the morning which surprised us. Even though the property is old, it was clean and the beds were soft but comfortable enough. I hope they keep improving the property. I would still consider returning if they continue with improvements.

A decent bang for your buck.

The sand piper was a quick trip, last minute, it was inexpensive, close to what we were up to for the day. Nothing fancy, but we were there just to sleep. For the price it was safe, decent and good people.
