You get what you pay for
You get what you pay for. Pros: The hostel itself was fairly clean and the bathrooms were cleaned daily. Most of the staff are extremely friendly. Nice study/lounge room and patio. WiFi was not working when I got there but they fixed it by the next day. Room temperature was ok. Not too loud outside. Cons: Disorganized check in. Never received key to the room so it was unlocked all the time. Door to shared room wasn’t working closing properly. Shared room smelled like alcohol. No oven or stove, just a microwave and hot plate. Disorganized check out.

Fantastic place
They did a lovely job remodeling the place. I had a emergecy to handle shortiy after I arrived out of town and they were kind enough to refund my stay. Cassie and the rest of the staff there are easily approachable and friendly. Trust me if you wanna stay in New Orleans give this place a shot you wont be dissapointed.

The house has its own culture that I can't express in words. Cass oversees the hostel pretty well and I love how she responded fast to my request in the Whatsapp group even it's out of work hours. She deserves 10/10.

Lovely home hostel
I love this hostel! With a southern home vibe, Site 61 is surprisingly clean and spacious. The building retains an antebellum feel but because it's recently renovated so you still get the modern comfort. My favorite part about this hostel is that the hallway has eight private bathrooms, so you have the toilet, the sink, and shower in each bathroom - there's virtually no way you won't find an unoccupied bathroom! The bed is super comfortable too, which is absolutely perfect for resting after a whole night of debauchery. The hostel's only potential downside is its somewhat sketchy neighborhood, but really, you should be hopping on and off your cab ride and enter the building anyway, so it's not like you'll be walking around outside too much. Oh yeah, it's only a 10 minute ride from French Quarter and the Garden District, so if you are a tourist in NOLA who don't want to splurge on hotels, Site 61 is your pick!

Great hostel for the proce
I thought this was a great hostel, especially considering it was my first experience staying in one. The location was a little sketchy, but we didn't have any problems with people messing with us or our car. I just wouldn't walk anywhere alone. Even the staff will tell you the same. The hostel was very clean and the bathrooms were updated. I wish the temperature was cooler in the rooms because I tend to heat up at night, but there is a box fan in each room. Breakfast was small- cereal, bagels, oatmeal, orange juice, and coffee. For me it was fine, but my stepdad thought we would be having a buffet (haha). There's balconies on the top floor to sit and relax, along with a nice patio on the back that is fenced in. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and would definitely stay here again!
