Charged me $71 for the room then $100 deposit when I got there, that still hasn’t been returned even after I called about it and they said they started the refund process. Bathroom had not been cleaned, hair all over, plus only one towel.

The location was centrally located for the events we were to attend. The acess to the RObert groceery staore and hot deli was great fopr qjuick delicious breakfasts, I think a rolling "coat" rack to be able to hang up certain articles aof clothing would be helpful. A mirror in the bathroom, and more hooks/racks for towels would be nice., throw away beverage /water glasses would be nice for tooth brushing. The floor in the bathroom needs to be reenforced . Overall it satified our needs and use,

Good affordable choice

Good location, an easy walk to Frenchman and Bourbon Street. Felt very safe walking back to my room by myself in the middle the night. Plenty of good restaurants nearby.The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Air conditioner worked well, and there was a ceiling fan above the bed. Shower not great, and there was no table or desk. I would stay again.

Could have been better/cleaner

It was gross. The pictures looked way better than it was. The room itself does have potential and could be a cute place to stay but it wasn't clean well at all. The was vomit on one of the sides of the bed, the trash can in the kitchen smelled like a dead animal after removing the trash bag from it, and there wasn't a whole lot of lighting. The location wasn't the cleanest either but I'm not sure if it was just that part of new Orleans or not.
