Great location. The property is in need of minor repairs (light switches, locks, floors). However the staff is truly exceptional. Emily and Brittany were so kind and gave the best recommendations.

Make sure you look close at the pricing and note that they charge a cleaning fee in addition to their rate. The property looked extremely nicer in pictures than in person.

The mansion was great. The staff were excellent. Emily gave the background on the house and the security guard gave us a wonderful tour even though we got in really late. I would recommend this location to anyone. It’s a must stay!

Excellent escape while on business

We had to add on a night stay while at a conference and booked at the last minute, had an excellent experience, very friendly and accommodating staff, location is great, near Frenchman Street and the Quarter but not in the midst of the noise. Beautiful old style decor, but kept up very well.
