Excellent hostel experience.

It is a hostel, not a hotel, so do not expect hotel amenities. It was our first hostel experience and it was very good. The location is good. The staff and everyone else were friendly and very helpful. Our room for 2 was clean and comfortable. The WiFi was good. The toilets and showers were good, private, and not dorm like. We had a very good experience and would happily stay there again.

Great staff and experience.

Had a great experience with the room, stay, and staff. Everybody was friendly and accommodating, and helped my first solo trip experience feel like I had friends with me. They readily gave me great recommendations and even showed us around during the daily activities. The rooms and bathrooms were also always available and very clean. I would recommend to anyone.

Close to Bourbon St. I think the property is well thought out. Shared bathroom area, but with separate lockable toilet/showers. I had issues getting in the building, had to call and be let in. 3pm check in and I didn't get the email with my code until after 730pm LoL. They answered the phone and came right down to let me in and tell me my code when I arrived and called the number on the door. My only complaint would have to be that the pool table has broken rails on both ends from people sitting on it. But that's chronic at places not maintained by a pool player. All in all, a great deal for the price and a short walk to Bourbon St.
