Would maybe give it another try ...

The location is phenomenal! However the walls and doors are really thin so there's a lack of assumed privacy you'd expect. The house also had a very strong weed odor downstairs where the hosts live.

Absolutely Perfect!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Mardi Gras house. We really hated to see that it was being sold but hopefully the new owners will continue to have it a Bed and Breakfast. It was conveniently located for all our needs. The house keeper was available at all times and very accommodating. The room was way better than expected. The decor was fabulous!!! If it does continue to be a bed and breakfast we will continue to use it as long as we can.

Great Place but uncomfortable bed!!

This is a wonderfully maintained and painted house conveniently located to downtown, Civic Center and the Mari Gras parades. Staff super friendly and helpful. Single drive for parking cars and can be difficult to get your car out if someone parked behind you. Even though we liked the house a lot the bed in our room was the most uncomfortable bed we have ever tried to sleep on. I don’t know how the other bedroom mattresses feel but the one we slept on should be replaced asap!

It's all about the cat.

Great location and really cool place. Very nice people, warm welcome, great cat! After I fed him breakfast on Sunday morning (I am certain it was 2nd or 3rd breakfast) he wandered into our room where I used him as an alarm clock for my wife. We we're quite chilly during the night. No thermostat in the room and on Sunday morning I discovered the thermostat in the dining room and the a/c was on. Limited hot water for a shower too. Other than those 2 small things we loved it.

NOT PLEASED!!

I booked for a conference. Upon arrival the rate had changed no notice and due to the conference all hotels were booked. I was even provide with a reference number and STILL told my room was canceled. There’s a weed smell every day in the house. We were offered breakfast once but we never made an effort to partake. There’s a pitbull which we were informed is a service dog. FYI..this was my first time in a bed and breakfast. I didn’t like it won’t be doing that again. The family and other tenant was pleasant.

Super cute old home with 4 seperate rooms. Parking for mardi gras parades was easy, breezy. Hosts and made us aware and gave detailed instructions on how to get in and get by blocked roads. This was clutch. There is house cat. She snuck into our room one night and ended up spending the night with us. She is cute and friendly. Loved her company. There are several stairs to get up to rooms. I dont remember reading that in listing, but didnt affect us at all. The house itself was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ but the real gems were Tyra the house mom and Steve the breakfast cook. They added such a fun vibe that you'd expect from a placed named Mardi Gras house. Steve made us delicious breakfast both days and his quick wit and humor were missed before we even checked out. Thank you to the wondeeful host and the live in staff. This trip would not have been the same without staying at this property.

Good location .. don’t plan having breakfast there

Location is good. The owner is very nice BUT it’s not possible for her to operate a B&B while holding a full time job an hour away without a qualified cook & cleaning person. The “continental “ breakfast meant you had to make your own coffee/tea, there was bread for toast dated 10/5 (we arrived 10/21), the bag of blueberry bagels was also outdated. There were 4 open boxes of cereal that I didn’t bother to check dates because we decided to walk to A Spot of Tea for breakfast. Even though we reserved a room with a private bathroom, she took us to a room with a bathroom in the hall & advised us we’d be sharing the shower. That was not acceptable and she did move us to another room with an amazing shower! I had to search the house for toilet paper and towels since the room wasn’t cleaned/bed wasn’t made, etc. after our first night.

I highly recommend this a place to stay when visiting Mobile. I chose it due to it being close to the cruise terminal. The house is actually walking distance to everything in Mobile. The host even allowed me to park my car there for free during my cruise. If I am ever in Mobile I HAVE to stay at the Mardi Gras house.
