"Being on Bourbon Street with a balcony was a first, fun and probably the last. The jazz band across the street was pleasant to wake up to but the kids playing the buckets all day and into the night was a bit much."

"Overall it was nice and quaint . Great location . I do think the color scheme in the rooms needs to be updated. It was a green trim around the borders and doors . I think just updating would make a world of difference as well as putting some flooring down instead of the natural concrete"

Due to COVID amenities at the hotel were closed which was fine. Also I didn’t see any staff but the front desk clerk also due to COVID but they both were very sweet and helpful. I know that if I was able to experience all amenities it Would be nice
