I decided to fly into New Orleans on a random getaway weekend trip. Although I booked this place at the absolute last minute & my flight was delayed by a couple of hours, the owners (Matt & Lynn) were super patient and very accommodating! The customer service is outstanding. They are sincerely available if you need any help or information while visiting. I know the city pretty well, so after Lynn helped me check in, I went out to meet up with some old girlfriends.
A+ for the location! It's only a few blocks from the French Quarter, so this makes it wonderfully convenient. You can walk, bike, or drive. I personally walked over everyday so I could burn a few calories before stuffing myself silly with Cafe du Monde beignets. You can visit all of the tourist attractions that you want, and then retreat back to the Guest House located inside the relaxing neighborhood of Marigny. The neighborhood itself is pleasant with all of the historical homes and shaded sidewalks. It's a few steps away from Frenchmen's Street. Plenty of hip establishments to eat, drink and be merry at.
A+ for the Guest House itself! This historical house is beautifully done. There is a beautiful garden area in the backyard. I am an absolute neat freak, and I'm happy to report that my room was absolutely spotless!!! I walked around with white socks in my suite and they were still white at the end of my stay. The maidservice was wonderful, as there were fresh sheets for the bed, and plenty of clean, soft towels everyday. The pictures from the website are great references to the actual rooms. Everything you could need is available (cable TV, CD music player, iron/ironing board, alarm clock, and even a mini fridge). When I settled in to take a shower, I thought I was going to have to make a trip to the store, but nope- I found just what I needed under the sink!
There is a self service system for breakfast and snacks. As a guest here, everything in the common area kitchen is available for you. There are coffee, juices, fresh fruit, bagels, cream cheese, etc, etc. I personally like this amentity because whether I am up at 4 am or 4 pm, I can get what I want right then.
All in all this is a fantastic place to stay. The price, location and cleanliness can not be beat by any chain hotel in New Orleans. Next time I visit New Orleans, I will definitely be staying here!
