Nice staff, super clean and great amenities. The solo bathrooms and showers were a great plus. The lockers for my very over sized backpack. The bed was comfy and it had privacy curtains and outlets. No complaints and a good price

Excellent location and everything was really great! I was a bit nervous about noise since I tend to be a light sleeper, but we were in one of the private rooms and it was super, I didn't need to even use ear plugs. The room ceilings are really high, modern, and the AC was perfect. I would definitely stay here again!

This place was wonderful! Clean and private bathrooms and showers, clean and comfy bed, excellent location. I will definitely be staying here again! Rachel at the front desk was friendly, helpful and made me feel very comfortable as a guest. Best hostel I’ve ever stayed in!

You can walk to anywhere in the French Quarter and there is a streetcar right in front of the hotel, so the transportation is very convenient. The shared kitchen is spacious and open 24 hours a day, so I used it often. The only inconvenient things were that there was only a small light by the bedside so it was dim, and in some shower rooms the water was lukewarm, and the breakfast selection was limited. The cost of the stay was very reasonable, so I think it was great value for money and suitable for long-term stays. I would like to stay here again when I visit New Orleans again!

I had planned to stay for three nights, but due to a staff mistake, I was moved to a different room after one night. The front desk kept all my luggage that I had left behind, so that was no problem.
