Very nice staff but you’re kind of on your own with no staffed front desk, which is perfectly fine if you know this prior to your stay. Don’t expect to call down to a front desk and have your shower head fixed or tv looked at if something goes wrong. We were there for 6 days and needed to call on the 3rd day to get towels which took a few hours to get. The floor in the room hadn’t been cleaned so it made our socks black. The in-wall air conditioning unit definitely needs a new filter, we couldn’t stop sneezing. The room smelled very damp and musty. It could really use a dehumidifier. No exhaust fan in the bathroom so lots of mildew and mold on the ceiling. When we did get in touch with staff, they were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. Just be prepared to fetch your own trash bags in the common area and remove your own trash to place in the garbage bins outside which seem to line the street daily.

Mostly good. Lavatory faucet only delivered a trickle of water. Also, would have liked at least one chair - something to sit on when you put on your shoes etc.

The description of the guest house is all a bit over-egged, so if you go expecting a bit less than promised you’ll be fine. My room was on the top floor, large room but lacking any real care to the layout (i.e. lots of space but not even a chair to sit in and a broken ironing board in the corner). Also as it was at the top the snazzy locking system didn’t work properly so I was able to get a key from the receptionist. Another issue being the water pressure for the shower, not a deal breaker - just takes longer to get the shampoo out. The early check-in fee isn’t very welcoming when you arrive to a new city, travelling 9 hours on a train and clearly I had a cold but I was still quoted the $40 extra for just one extra hour. It’s in their rules but still seems harsh. The house is in a fairly good location, tram stop outside and walkable to the garden district which has more food options.

Love the historic atmosphere and the tram stop just across the road. Didn't like that there was no one there to talk to, even someone there for an hour or two at set times would have been better. I was lucky when I checked in as there was someone there and she was very helpful otherwise I would have been in a room upstairs with no lift and as a 70 year old I would really have struggled with my luggage.

The receptionist was extremely helpful. The trolley stop right outside the hotel was the way to get to and from the French Quarter. Big room with a tall ceiling and comfy bed. Would surely stay here again.

Spacious room. No cups, glasses for water. There was no area in the bathroom to set anything on to get ready. Small closet, no dresser. The ceiling fan would not run without the light being on also.

This property has a photo online on Expedia that did not in any way reflect the room we were given. Our room opened to the outside and at the end there was a little patio. The litle patio was fine. The room however smelled of mold and mildew. When my daughter and I stepped inside, we took one look and retreated from the smell. We saw what looked to be black mold on the floor. I know that there was a lot of damage to buildings after Hurricane Katrina that required rennovations and who knows where the issue stemmed from really. I do know that we could not stay in this environment. Though we were inconvenienced, had to get transportation to the hotel, then away to a second hotel "Holy Angels" we did at least get an upgrade to a much better room. For some reason however, my booking for two nights did not show. We were called and told our "stuff" would be put out of the room if we did not pay for our second night immediately. This necessary and unexpected action really put a dampner on our stay in New Orleans. We did appreciate the effort to move us, however it was clear that much of the staff we interracted with needed "customer service" training. We felt like invaders or like we were annoying to staff. We did need to have a lot of texts because staff is not readily available in person. For example, when we moved onto the second hotel, we were told we could store our luggage a few hours as we waited for our airlines to take off. No one was at the desk at 11 for checkout.
