What an amazingly be6and weird place to stay. It was built in the late 1800s and you can feel that. It takes you away from the fast pace of bourbon street and the constant traffic allowing you to reset before going back out. The courtyard is extremely unique and beautiful.

This is more like a cheap motel than a hotel/inn. The walls are thin, the room is clean enough but not spotless. The room I stayed in needs new paint on the walls because I could see where bleach had been sprayed on the walls. But like many places in New Orleans, budget options are old and have lots of character.

The young lady at checkin was excellent, very helpful and personable. The nicest person I met in NOLA. Rooms are old and was too be expected. That being said the window ac units could use and upgrade a one of the family rooms was uncomfortably warm. And in the other room the older grandson was finding pills on the floor, they were immediately flushed in the toilet.
