Near French Quarter, quiet, cheap, offstreet parking (20$ per night), soft bed, room well equipped but small, staff friendly. Hotel is run down and needs maintentnace. But for younger, adventurous visitors wanting inexpensive accommodation, I can recommend this hotel. For older, more particular guests, it might be good to find another.
