Despite a "French Quarter" location "close to Bourbon Street", it's "quiet at night" at this "pleasant" "gem" (once a macaroni factory) where a "beautiful courtyard" is hidden behind an "old-European" exterior; parking is free in the "private" lot, its staffers are so "old-style" they're "worthy of appearing in a Bogart movie" and the accommodations come at a "reasonable" price, so while a few find the "rustic" rooms "outdated", most would "recommend it over and over again"; N.B. the restaurant is open only for breakfast and lunch.

Very clean, great location, awesome balcony, and fridge in room.

This hotel was very clean and had friendly staff. I was on the second floor and there was a great balcony. Also, I was pleased to find a fridge in the room. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends. Also, there was free parking. ...read more

originally reserved two rooms and was upgraded for FREE to a two bd, two bath suite- GREAT!!
nothing- great in many ways

Great hotel- very knowledgeable staff who make good recommendations. Accomodations are older and furnishings are dated, but very clean and serviceable. Neat views out of window of the French Quarter. Decent-sized pool was recently upgraded to salt water system- very clean and pretty. Restaurant is nice- overlooks pool, but hardly any reason to eat there with all the fantastic bakeries and restaurants in area. Best about this hotel is the free parking- adjacent to the hotel and self-park so you don't have to fool with valet parking. This set-up is unusual in the Quarter and a HUGE plus. This hotel is perfect for anyone who wants to spend their time exploring the Quarter, rather than sitting in a hotel room. ...read more

Great location, beautiful entry/lobby feel and
great staff.
Even with air conditioning full blast, top floor still a bit warm on very hot day.

Staff was warm, friendly, and accommodative the minute we walked in the door (early). Knew the French Quarter well, great recommendations. Nice rooms, clean and comfortable. Air conditioned. Nice pool and enclosed courtyard. Highly recommended. ...read more

Great location and the free parking was outstanding.
Rooms were a little warm even with the ceiling fan. Also update the TV.

The hotel was great and the location make everything close and convenient. The pool area was nice and the breakfast by the pool was great.

Location, free onside parking, value, cleanliness, comfort.
Nothing.

I took my husband to new Orleans for his 74th birthday. It was his first trip. This hotel was perfect in every way. The room was large, attractive, we had French doors out to a large balcony overlooking the quarter. It is in a great location, close to Jackson Square and lots of restaurants. We will always stay here when visiting New Orleans. Also, I met the owner who lives at the hotel and he was so gracious. We just fell in love with this place. ...read more
