This hotel was so cute! I wanted a place that had character and an authentic New Orleans vibe, and that’s exactly what this hotel delivered. I adored having the balcony. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The front desk staff were very kind and friendly. I would stay here again!

Room was clean and comfortable. Great location and the staff were friendly. We’d have liked it to have more character in the rooms. It’s pretty sterile with no personality, but we’d stay there again.

The thermostat was impossible to control. It was either really hot or freezing cold. The blanket on the bed is just a very thin quilt which makes for impossible sleeping at night. So much so that we left a day early! The room is a very plain and basic room and did not feel very clean.
