First know that this quaint little hotel is at the far end of the French Quarter. It was not a problem for us but there’s no close places to go to eat. I can’t take anything away because I didn’t know that. The hotel is a historic mansion so as an older property it has it’s eccentricities. The floors creak and a few other small issues occurred however the staff fixed every issue with LIGHTNING speed! We had an issue with our room and were moved immediately to another room without question or fuss. You can’t find that service from a chain hotel. These ladies care! We also highly recommend the bar across the street for a stiff nightcap and the convenience store a block down for some great boudin! There is also nighttime security which is nice when you are coming in late.

It was a very nice property. We were in not on the property, but in a different building than the mansion itself like an old apartment elevator was slow. They need walk up out of the elevator and walk down eight flights of stairs to get to your room and it just wasn’t worth the money and if you wanted, I had to walk out of the building about a block up to get to the main building to get your eyes and breakfast and stuff never did get a chance to use the pool. It was quite a ways out from everything and there was a couple restaurants close by, but they were dirty and gross
