Little things can make or break a hotel stay
Bed was very comfortable. Only one chair on balcony, cigarette butts on balcony floor, obviously hadn't been swept off. Emailed owner about missing chair, heard nothing back. We ended up using a chair from the balcony next to us: if someone had been staying in that room, it wouldn't have been possible. Coffee service was practically non existent; no sign of any creamer and very little sugar. Burn hole on comforter of bed; was very noticeable. No one around to voice our concerns to. Room is very small, but that is to be expected in an older building. Attention to detail is important if you want repeat customers.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Overall, very nice. Excellent location, walkability is outstanding. Loved sitting on the balcony, or in the common areas. The room was very comfortable, and roomy. I have one complaint. There was a rat in our sitting room on the first night. It was crazy cold for New Orleans, and it’s probably what drove it inside, but it was extremely upsetting. Luckily for me, my husband killed it. I was a bit disappointed in the response. No offer of anything - my husband sprayed the room with repellant, the hotel did nothing. They also didn’t offer any lagniappe to compensate us for having to deal with vermin. In short, thank goodness my husband was there to take care of it.

I loved every minute of it, everything is unique from the home like setting to the restaurant down stair where you feel like you are amongst friends. The cleaning staff was phenomenal always on top of everything we needed. We had no issues whatsoever and this is now our stay in New Orleans.
