great location and a lovely old building, but serious issues with poor cleanliness. the floors and surfaces were visibly dirty, nothing felt cleaned at all. very bare bones in terms of everything else. there was no comforter, we had to search for a thing quilt, small and non functional mini fridge, you have to ask for water at the desk. everything is plastic and poor quality. this felt more like a hostel inside a beautiful facade than a hotel.

Staff was very friendly. It was nice to have parking at the hotel but $45 was a little steep. The building was very old like most of the hotels in the French Quarter. Some repairs were being done so the hotel smelled like paint the whole trip. If you have lung issues or are sensitive to smells it might be an issue. The room was nice for the price. The walls are very thin so you do hear every conversation in the hallway. The location was great. It was a short distinction to all the walking tour we booked and the restaurants were only an 8 minute walk.

We asked for adjoining rooms when we booked this room 5 months prior to our stay. We did not get them, nor did the staff seem to care. Our in room refrigerator didn’t work the first day. The staff was not welcoming or accommodating. The rooms were a nice size with a private balcony for one and a shared balcony for the other.

Place was quaint. Room was nice and clean. Few issues such as no microwave, very extremely thin walls. Woken up at 3 a.m. by couple laughing and talking. Shower had immediate hot water and decent water pressure. On-site parking was challenging as no instructions given. Bar was not open. Had to have maintenance come fix our tv. Otherwise all was good.

This was the second time we stayed at this hotel. We love the location and the easy parking... very walkable to the historic sites. It's an older hotel with a lot of character. The pool looks nice, but we went in December“bar both times, so it was too cold to use it. The room was very clean. We love character and this place has lots of it.

Our room was gorgeous, we were on the third floor so we had our own private balcony. Second floor rooms have a shared balcony. Everything was wonderful, the staff was kind and helpful, the onsite parking was secure and safe. We were close enough to walk to most places we wanted to go but in a less busy area so there wasn’t a ton of noise at night. We would definitely stay here again.
