It was so much fun seeing the beautiful architecture and furniture in the room and the hotel. Super fun experience! From a practical perspective it was a bit uncomfortable trying to walk around on the wood floors that made noise, I felt like I was being obnoxious to any downstairs neighbors no matter how much I tried to tip toe. Also be advised if you have a lot of luggage there is no luggage elevator and the stairs, as cool as they are, are very steep and irregularly shaped so dragging heavy luggage up and down to the third floor was a challenge.

Overall it was a nice stay. Location is amazing, easy walk to both Bourbon and Frenchman streets. Our room was on secon floor and there is no elevator, the stairs leading up are a very steap spiral staircase. Room was nice enough and bed was very comfortable A few things that we didn't like were the water pressure was non existent in the shower like literally a dribble also you had to turn on shower for 4 or 5 min before the hot water arrived. We chose this hotel because of courtyard and hot tub but the hot tub only worked 1st day. Front staff was cordial but not openly friendly like you see all over New Orleans.

Clean with comfortable bed, lacking in amenities.

Overall the customer service was great, aside from a miscommunication at the beginning of our stay. We added a night through hotels.com, and after the first night I got a call accusing us of failing to vacate our room on time when we were in fact staying for another 4 nights, and had confirmed twice verbally with another staff member that we would have no issue. The person apologized but this was not a great way to start our trip, minutes before starting a pre-planned tour. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, but the climate control didn't work great and we found ourselves getting overly warm at night. Also difficult was that there was no fridge in the room, which was a drag, as it meant we had no place to put leftovers after a meal or to store beverages, snacks, etc. if we wanted to come back to the room during a break between activities. The listing on Hotels.com says there is a shared fridge and a shared microwave; this is not true. There was only one small chair and no desk, so again, not really inviting if you needed to kill 45 minutes to an hour before dinner, for example. The lack of guest laundry facilities was also a challenge.

The main building of Lamothe House is a 225y.o. house, with ornate moulding, wood floors, and winding staircases. They offer an "authentic experience." We definitely had some authentic experiences, which we took in stride. Our first room experienced a flood from the room above. In the second room, the climate control pooped out. The third room, however was great. The staff was awsome, and the manager promised to refund a night and adjust our rate for the smaller room we ended up in.
