Definitely happy with my stay!
This hostel is phenomenal! Everyone is so kind and the guests were super respectful. It was clean, comfortable and felt very safe (for self and belongings). It was quiet at night and I had no trouble sleeping, especially if you have earplugs in case your roommates come in later than you or get up early. The bathrooms could use a bit more cleaning, but it wasn't bad. Just bring flip flops!

Taylor Swift Girls Trip
Great stay for the Taylor Swift concert in NOLA. Check in clerk was a little abrasive but everyone else for the stay was delightful. Only issue we had was no ice available. We were told to go to the attached cafe for ice but we were charged . Otherwise, great visit and loved our queen suite with bunkbeds.
