The Pontchartrain definitely has its charms, from a lovely and eclectic lobby to the three excellent restaurant options in the hotel, but our time there also had several pitfalls. At check in, we were given a wifi password, but the wifi was open and public - there was no option to use faster locked wifi anywhere or to use the password. This was unfortunately poor internet security. We were given two waters at check in for the whole stay and some drink tickets we were told were complimentary but were actually included in the amenities fee and we didn't use them. There wasn't any mention of the amenities fee that is on the website at check in or check out, so we assumed it was bundled into the price we paid for our rooms...it was not. It's $25 USD/day for the water (2), the wifi (which was open), cleaning, drinks (2) etc. separate from the room fee, which I really wish we had've known in advance instead of receiving an unexpected charge the day after we left. The ceiling in our bathroom also started leaking on the first night and plaster began raining down on the toilet. When we made mention of this, there was no option to move rooms because the hotel was full and the repairs couldn't be completed until we left, so the only thing we were offered was a patch job to prevent further fallout - no compensation. If I had've known about the amenities fee, I would have requested it at least be waived for the day we had to spend outside of our room for that patch job to be completed.
