Great location. Great staff. Walkable access to all of French Quartet and more, yet the interior room was quiet and peaceful. The room was impeccably clean and the staff was super friendly and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay

We were a little concerned being off a main road, but it was pretty quiet. We liked the location and courtyard on the property. Staff was excellent! Very happy our room was available early. Bed could have been better with another blanket or comforter. Room was a pretty good size for New Orleans.

Charming hotel, comfortable beds, great location. Daily cleaning service was good but could be better. We found food crumbs and a piece of cracker stuck on the back of one of the chairs. We put that chair next to the window so the staff could clean it, but it wasn't cleaned. Our room was next to the elevator, and it was very loud at night. We used earplugs so we could sleep. Next time, we'd ask for a room far from the elevator. That said, we would book again when we come back to New Orleans.

Location, location, location!!! Great location on the edge of the French Quarter. Nice walk to almost any area with the quarter you might want to visit. Many food, dining, and other activities 10-15 min or shorter away. We stayed in an interior room to minimize noise. Room was a nice king, night stands, dresser along with a closet and bathroom and large TV. Served of our needs. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay again!!
