I’m giving this property a 4 out of 5 stars. For the rate charged it has lots of charm with lots of space in our double room and the Free Breakfast was really good! We had a foyer/mudroom, large closet and private bathroom. It was also nice to have Two outdoor sitting spaces: garden courtyard and an old fashioned front porch. The bathroom tub and tile floor in the bathroom was lacking care and cleaning was needed for both.

Great location, good food and museums nearby
My partner and I enjoyed a very lovely five night stay in the middle of September. We loved the room and the location was perfect. It was a really reasonable price which included breakfast. The weather was very warm and staying in a historic carriage house could’ve been uncomfortable, but the AC worked hard the whole time we were there and so the room was always a refreshing place to return to. The amenities were good and the staff was friendly and helpful. There is some parking if you need it but you can easily use the public transit. Conveniently located a block from the streetcar with easy access all over the city. The public transit is really affordable and pretty easy to use with an app. B&B is located just a five minute ride to the French quarter or Garden district. Even closer to the WWII museum which is INCREDIBLE, even if you’re not a history buff. Check it out. There is some tasty food in the neighborhood too. We especially enjoyed Suzy’s Soulhouse and Maïs Arepas. Would absolutely stay again if I’m back in New Orleans.
