Despite a "French Quarter" location "close to Bourbon Street", it's "quiet at night" at this "pleasant" "gem" (once a macaroni factory) where a "beautiful courtyard" is hidden behind an "old-European" exterior; parking is free in the "private" lot, its staffers are so "old-style" they're "worthy of appearing in a Bogart movie" and the accommodations come at a "reasonable" price, so while a few find the "rustic" rooms "outdated", most would "recommend it over and over again"; N.B. the restaurant is open only for breakfast and lunch.

originally reserved two rooms and was upgraded for FREE to a two bd, two bath suite- GREAT!!
nothing- great in many ways

Great hotel- very knowledgeable staff who make good recommendations. Accomodations are older and furnishings are dated, but very clean and serviceable. Neat views out of window of the French Quarter. Decent-sized pool was recently upgraded to salt water system- very clean and pretty. Restaurant is nice- overlooks pool, but hardly any reason to eat there with all the fantastic bakeries and restaurants in area. Best about this hotel is the free parking- adjacent to the hotel and self-park so you don't have to fool with valet parking. This set-up is unusual in the Quarter and a HUGE plus. This hotel is perfect for anyone who wants to spend their time exploring the Quarter, rather than sitting in a hotel room. ...read more

Great location, beautiful entry/lobby feel and
great staff.
Even with air conditioning full blast, top floor still a bit warm on very hot day.

Staff was warm, friendly, and accommodative the minute we walked in the door (early). Knew the French Quarter well, great recommendations. Nice rooms, clean and comfortable. Air conditioned. Nice pool and enclosed courtyard. Highly recommended. ...read more

Great location and the free parking was outstanding.
Rooms were a little warm even with the ceiling fan. Also update the TV.

The hotel was great and the location make everything close and convenient. The pool area was nice and the breakfast by the pool was great.

Location, free onside parking, value, cleanliness, comfort.
Nothing.

I took my husband to new Orleans for his 74th birthday. It was his first trip. This hotel was perfect in every way. The room was large, attractive, we had French doors out to a large balcony overlooking the quarter. It is in a great location, close to Jackson Square and lots of restaurants. We will always stay here when visiting New Orleans. Also, I met the owner who lives at the hotel and he was so gracious. We just fell in love with this place. ...read more

Very much like the French Quarter in design and location. It had class.
Too much cigarette smoking and odor of smoking was prevalent throughout.

Folks were very friendly. Parking is convenient and was free. Was definitely not a chain hotel and was more a family owned hotel with people who seemed to take pride in everything from front desk to maids. ...read more

Great Location, free parking, friendly, and
uncomplicated stay.
They asked to leave the key at check-in, but didn't ask every time for my name to make sure that nobody else gets it.
