This hotel would be a five star if certain furniture would be updated, there were chairs in the rooms that were stained /soiled to the point we had to put towels to use them. Loved the technology in the room, the bed was very comfortable, the staff was great - it was hard to drag our suitcases because there were no ramps, only stairs in certain areas.

Very little furniture in the room. Staff had our reservation dates wrong and argued with me until they were proven wrong. Bar was closed. Hallways rather gloomy and dark.

Fun Super Bowl Weekend

This place was great. In the French Quarter, but far enough away to enjoy the local scene. Rooms were clean and quiet. The pool and patio area was calm and inviting. Great place for couples weekend. Short walk to the streetcar as well.

Staff was friendly and helpful. The location is great - close enough to the Quarter to easily walk to all the things but just on the edge enough to be relatively quiet.

History is here

Staff was friendly and the room was large enough. The lobby and hallways were hot. The room was chilly. In all fairness, we came just recovering from the snowstorm. The hallways were not well lit and a bit spooky! A nice historical hotel.

It felt very old-fashioned (like I was living in the early 1900s, which is a great thing). Wooden floors were very clean and the balcony view was nice! I did not like the fact that there was no cable tv service, presumably because it was limited on which room I booked. Nonetheless, it was a good experience.

Great location away from the noisy parts of the French Quarter and close to Frenchman Street. This is an old building so street noise can be an issue, but overall we enjoyed our stay there.
