Located right next to Trolley stop on the St. Charles line and with a number of nice restaurants nearby, this quaint hotel is very nice and clean and imparts a feeling of old New Orleans to your stay! The staff is excellent.

Let’s start with the good. Convenient to trolly. It’s right outside. Room was incredibly clean. Staff while not onsite was always reachable and incredibly nice. Towels were fluffy and shower was hot! Price was reasonable. Now the bad…internet nor tv worked continuously. Bed was awful. Too gushy, so much so you couldn’t move. Air conditioning worked but it seemed to never cool room completely. Not a horrible experience but because of the bed, I wouldn’t book again.

What I like about the property is that it is quiet and peaceful. The only con was my room did not have a window, only in the bathroom and the AC unit location. I wish the room had a ceiling fan installed as a cooling option. Overall, I enjoyed my weekend visit and had a positive experience! The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Disliked: Staff & service
Though the rooms were clean it did not meet safety standards. Our safe would not open the next day and our friends safe in their room did not work at all. We waited all morning to have a service person come. They did not have the security key to access the safe and after quite a bit of time they eventually were able to contact the head guy only to say that they would have to watch a video to try and figure it out. Eventually it was opened but we could not trust leaving our passport or money in the safe. The manager said they would be replacing all the safes in the rooms as this was a problem!!! She should have told us in the beginning. We missed our tour that we had arranged for that morning while waiting around for the service guys and it took up the time we were able to spend in New Orleans as we were leaving on a cruise the next morning. If it had happened the day of our cruise we would have missed our cruise. They were very hard to contact as there was only someone there from 12-8 each day. We could only leave a message on their phone with no one getting back so we had to phone several times to find out what they were going to do to help us. The manager said that we would be compensated for this but we never were …Like wiping their hands clean after we left with a smile. Not a good place to stay.

I paid for an upgrade with a larger room with a desk. I have pictures, but don't know how to put them on your site. The only good thing was Diane the desk person. Only on the property from noon to 8:00 PM. It was dirty paint chips on the floor. Insect in corners of bathroom. It was a very small room. Only could fit a small table on one side of the bed. The property in our room was not like the rest of the rooms. We checked w\the rooms did look nicer. We had to go outside on a small porch to get to our room, the first night we entered the porch was after dark no light bulbs in the fixtures. We told them, and the put light bulbs in after the first night. It rained two nights while we stayed there it was awful trying to get in the room in the rain. The refrigerator did not work. They did replace it. We were told our room was and upgrade, I don' see how. If y9u tell me how to get the pictures to you. I would love to show you. Nothing like what I ordered. Very sad. I ordered it for myself and my daughter. SO DISAPPOINTED

Great location, directly on the parade route.
This is not a typical hotel with a front desk. They have a person on-site limited hours. Someone is available via phone 24/7. Great location! It is in the Lower Garden District - about 20-25 minutes walking to the French Quarter. The St Charles streetcar runs directly in front of the building. This is a very walkable area - you can walk to the French Quarter, CBD, Garden District, Magazine Street, Warehouse District etc. easily. It is on the Uptown parade route, so it is great - you can check a parade tracking app & walk out a few minutes ahead, They don't provide daily room cleaning but have a room downstairs stocked with towels and toiletries. They also have a coffee maker and refrigerator available in the same room. There is a small refrigerator in the room. My only complaint - I would have liked a coffee maker in the room. Room was spacious and clean. Bathroom was spacious. There are some food places close by and a Walgreens a few blocks away. I really enjoyed everything & will plan to stay here again

Location is very good as it is beside the street car line. It’s walkable to some nice cafes and restaurants and looks relatively safe. Room is spacious and clean. Furnishing is okay but looks aged. There’s only one person at front desk and she’s not there after hours during the night. Window is not double paned and noise from street traffic can be heard. My experience was made more unpleasant by the noise of water dripping from an upstairs a/c unit throughout the night.
