Parking on the street but we got lucky! It's an old house but very quaint and excellent for our traveling family group! Lots of beds and space. However my credit card was charged even tho I had a zero balance. Reception could not see the charge but my bank did!! However my deposit came back the next day as promised so that was good.

Excellent staff, they do what they can with the property. Our room had three A/C units but none of them were working. Dusty and squeaky ceiling fans. One bed had a broken leg.

Near French Quarter, quiet, cheap, offstreet parking (20$ per night), soft bed, room well equipped but small, staff friendly. Hotel is run down and needs maintentnace. But for younger, adventurous visitors wanting inexpensive accommodation, I can recommend this hotel. For older, more particular guests, it might be good to find another.

Clean room and property. Outdated but charming in its own way. Not in the greatest area but close enough to the French Quarter to walk but not advised late night alone. For the money it was worth it

Parking was easy, front desk staff was fantastic and friendly…. And that… is where it ends. Courtyard was colorful and inviting, room was not. Shelf with holes in it, cheap beds, blemished furniture, and a huge cockroach. I’ve stayed in New Orleans and realize there are places with certain “quirks.” This place needs cleaning, remodeling, and some paint on the walls.

This hotel is an inexpensive, clean, and safe hotel in Marigny. It is within walking distance of the French Quarter and Frenchman St. Public transportation available nearby. The room I had was clean. The floors were creaky at points but it's a 130 yr old building. If you want a hotel with bells and whistles, stay elsewhere. If you want to experience the charm of Marigny, I highly recommend.
