If you're looking for a charming stay in the heart of the action, this hotel is a great choice. The rooms, especially the attic room with character, are lovely and equipped with modern amenities. The service is top-notch with friendly and knowledgeable staff, although navigating to the room can be a bit of a workout with all the stairs. The location couldn't be better, just a stone's throw away from Bourbon Street but quiet enough for a restful sleep. Dining options are minimal but sufficient for a quick bite. The pricing may lean towards the expensive side, but it's worth it for the setting.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. While the location was perfect for exploring Bourbon Street and Frenchman, the room had some issues like a dirty rug and a leaky toilet. The staff was excellent, always willing to assist and suggest ways to improve our stay, but the dining options were limited and not very impressive.

My room, though small, had a quirky charm to it despite being rundown. The commercial rug was dirty and stuck out, and there were maintenance issues like an electrical short in the lamp and a leaky, unattached toilet.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fabulous, just one block from Bourbon Street, making it easy to access the French Quarter, but the room was a bit disappointing with a sewage smell and tiny size. The service, however, was top-notch with Eric being particularly great. The dining options were extremely basic, though, with cold muffins and cereal being the main offerings.

The hotel is in a prime location, close to all the action yet nestled in a quiet part of the French Quarter. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to ensure a wonderful stay. However, the room had some issues like mold and peeling paint, and the dining options left something to be desired with minimal choices for breakfast.

The location couldn't be better, right in the heart of the nightlife on Bourbon Street. We also appreciated the upgrade to a room with a shared balcony and larger lounge area, though the lack of artwork on the walls made it feel a bit bare.

The dining options were minimal, more like a simple bed and breakfast setup. The breakfast lacked variety, with cold muffins and cereal being the main offerings.

The hotel is in the heart of the French Quarter, allowing easy access to all the attractions while maintaining a peaceful setting. The rooms were spacious but in poor condition and lacking windows. The service was friendly overall, although there were some issues with early check-in. The dining could use improvement with more diverse options. The location is excellent, though be mindful of tourism taxes. Overall, a decent value for money stay.
