Location
9
Excellent — repeatedly described as perfect for Bourbon Street, close to river, markets and restaurants while being far enough from the worst noise.
Room Quality
7.5
Rooms generally comfortable with good beds, balconies and views, but some rooms had aging fixtures (visible box springs, ripped carpet) and HVAC problems causing hot rooms.
Amenities
7.5
Good on amenities for a historic property: small but usable pool, little bar, in-room coffee maker and mini-fridge, welcome drink mentioned; pool size and some dated facilities noted.
Value for Money
6.8
Mixed to negative: complaints about high parking fees (and tipping for valet), unexpected charges/holds, and overpriced/underwhelming breakfast reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
7.2
Bar and welcome drink received praise, in-room coffee appreciated; however breakfast quality and coffee at breakfast were criticized and $15 breakfast seen as poor value.
Overall Experience
9.4
Generally very positive overall — guests enjoyed location, staff, comfortable beds and historic charm despite issues with cleanliness, AC and parking; many would recommend or return.

Great experience, Hotel was overall Fab!
Pros:

Location was great for everything we wanted to do, visit Bourbon Street, Mississippi River, French Market, Cemetery tour and great food.
Hotel was old school New Orleans style, exactly what we want an pretty much met expectations.

Cons:

The price to park at Hotel was almost as expensive as the cost of the rooms, not value for money and then you have to tip a Valet to get you car for you. This is poor on the Hotels part, by all means tip the Valet but not pay for parking, this should be included in th price.
Swimming pool is tiny too, I understand at the time these buildings were built, but pool for all it was nice, too small

Pros:

Loved the location, very close to Bourbon Street, but away from the noise. The hotel was everything I wanted for my first visit to NOLA. The room was comfortable, loved the view from our balcony, people were great.

Cons:

Can't think of a thing.

Pros:

Good location nice staff

Cons:

Dirty everywhere, especially the bathrooms. I’ve stayed once before 10 years ago and had a good time. It seems nothing has been updated or cleaned much since and one of the two elevators was broken for the entirety of our stay.

Good Value. Needs some TLC.
Pros:

Location. Pool. Staff.

Cons:

No bed skirts on the bed!!! The old box spring was visible?!?! Ripped/torn carpet in the hallways. I understood that a hold was put on my credit card when I checked in. It was actually a HARD CHARGE of $165. If this is not refunded I will of course be fighting this charge.

Overall great, but room location matters!
Pros:

Close to Bourbon Street, but far enough away to not be too loud. The pool area was small, but nice to use. The little bar was nice for a poolside drink. The room was basic, but clean. The bed was very comfortable with nice pillows.

Cons:

If you have a room that faces the parking lot they have the dumpster emptied at like 3am and it woke us up all three nights. Also, the breakfast they let you buy is $15/person and not good. walk a block or two for way better food options
