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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
