Great hotel, location and staff
Pros:

Great location. The interior has a great unique charm typical of New Orleans. Very clean. Convenient, cheap parking. Deposit returned almost instantly after stay which I have found incredibly rare in America. The staff were the most helpful since our stay in the United States from the UK. Thank you to Lauren!

Cons:

Some of the lights didn’t seem to work. Minor indiscretion as there were plenty of lamps around.

Nous nous attendions à bien mieux au vu des commentaires
Pros:

L'emplacement est très bien, proche de tout et notamment de Freshman street, très pratique pour sortir le soir.
La piscine est appréciable.

Cons:

Check inn compliqué, on a attendu à la porte.
Canapé lit extrêmement inconfortable
Nous étions 3, et il n'y avait que 2 chaises. Impossible de déjeuner ensemble.
Isolation inexistante. On entend vraiment tout, notamment le soir et la nuit.
La piscine a été occupée par des gens extérieurs à l'hôtel une AM
L'écoulement de la douche se faisait très mal.

Great location and spacious for our family of 5.
Pros:

We had a wonderful experience! We traveled with our three kids, and it was a great set up for a comfortable stay. The deck/porch was a perfect way to end the day. The location was not too loud and it was a close to delicious restaurants. The pool was perfect place to cool off after walking around in the New Orleans heat! Will definitely stay here again.

Pros:

L'emplacement entre les quartiers français et Marigny, le bâtiment construit autour de la cour intérieure avec piscine, le très grand logement, la literie confortable

Cons:

Le logement est sombre
L'accueil a des horaires restreints ce qui n'est pas gênant pour l'arrivée car ils envoient les codes d'ouverture le jour même. En revanche, nous avons dû récupéré nos bagages avant la fermeture du bureau à 17h
