A delightfully memorable stay
Pros:

Well restored building with plenty of comfort originality and welcoming staff.
Well located on the lovely tree lined Esplanade Ave. Quiet but near to music venues on Frenchman street and riverfront. The French Quarter is also fairly close.

Cons:

The only thing I didn’t like was paper plates and plastic knives and forks at breakfast

Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Pros:

The staff were friendly and so helpful. When we came back in the afternoon from being out, they asked about our day and gave us other suggestions. The location was also good for us- just on the edge of the French Quarter, near Frenchmen St, very walkable, and away from Bourbon Street. The simple breakfast helped us start our day and there was coffee, hot tea, and fruit available all day.
