Really Great Hotel

What a gem! Great location but still quiet. The staff was lovely and welcoming. The price for this hotel is unreal. Clean and simple room, great courtyard. I would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the French Quarter but not be kept up all night with noise.

Rhe place is absolutely charming with the exposed brick, and wooden beams in your bedrooms. The hotel also had a beautiful courtyard with a small pool. You're un the French Quarter so you're in the midde of everything N'awlins has to offer.

This place is amazing. The staff are amazing and were always willing to give advice on where to go. The room is historic, but that is New Orleans. I recommend embracing it. The pool was lovely, especially on those hot days. The hotel is located in the middle of everything. You can walk everywhere. Food options seconds to minutes away.

I liked the staff, the hotel was quaint but modern, and had its own direct access to a PJs Coffee Shop. The rooms were very clean and comfortable with a great view of the mighty Mississippi. We stayed an extra day, because it was hard to leave.
