Stay at Historic Streetcar Inn, NOLA
It was a very enjoyable stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Bathroom looked brand new. The location is great for getting around NOLA. Streetcar stop right in front of hotel. Diane at the front desk was wonderful and very helpful. She deserves 5 stars!

A beautifully renovated historic property!
We stayed here while In New Orleans for a weekend trip. It is an absolutely beautiful property. We loved our balcony room. It was huge and very clean and we could walk right out of our room onto the street. We loved that it was literally right in front of one of the Stops for the St Charles Street car. We used that to get around the French quarter area. Communication from the property was great as well. There is street noise but they provided a white noise machine. We will absolutely stay here again when we come to town!!

Highly recommend this property. I traveled with my 15 year old and felt completely safe. The property is gated with access to doors and gate with key that is downloaded to your phone. It has coffee and tea station. The room is super clean, bed was very comfortable, cold a/c with shutter blinds for full privacy. We did have to use the stairs and access from the beautiful private patio from outside. The pizza place next door has great pizza! The green line passes right in front of the property and the red tourist bus has a stop two blocks over. Its close to Magazine street with all the cool coffee shops. Its really close to the French Quarter, not walking close, but close enough. This property does not have dedicated parking. Yet I parked on the side of a street nearby and never had any problems. We preferred to take uber in town and not pay for expensive parking. I would stay again. Nearby restaurants we recommend: Superior Seafood and Oyster Bar, Houston's, Nola Poboys, Oceana.

Beautiful but no elevator or breakfast
Beautifully renovated old home - only downside was rooms were on second floor and no elevator for luggage but Diane agreed to hold the luggage and I only took what I needed for my brief overnight stay up the stairs. She was very helpful! However listing said breakfast was provided but only coffee/tea were available.

Halloween
The Streetcar in was good for just a one night stay. The rate was good for NOLA. The room was a bit small and wanky but with it being old that is just part of the charm. It is a bit of distance from town so get your walking shoes on as the cable car isn't always convenient, full or on time.

I had never stayed anywhere with no staff on the premises but it worked out well. I did have a problem with the tv and there was no one to help me solve the problem.

I didn’t like the digital key to get into the rooms and the front door. Also they didn’t have early check in so we had to wait until 4 pm and we got off the cruise ship at 10 am

Tulane Parents/Homecoming Weekend
Was what we were expecting for the most part. Wish we could have gotten additional towels with a charge. Diane at check in is great. Location was convenient between downtown and Tulane, with street car stop right out front. I would probably not stay there again, but it was by no means terrible. Just a few places we have stayed before, that were booked, that we like better.

Very nice staff but you’re kind of on your own with no staffed front desk, which is perfectly fine if you know this prior to your stay. Don’t expect to call down to a front desk and have your shower head fixed or tv looked at if something goes wrong. We were there for 6 days and needed to call on the 3rd day to get towels which took a few hours to get. The floor in the room hadn’t been cleaned so it made our socks black. The in-wall air conditioning unit definitely needs a new filter, we couldn’t stop sneezing. The room smelled very damp and musty. It could really use a dehumidifier. No exhaust fan in the bathroom so lots of mildew and mold on the ceiling. When we did get in touch with staff, they were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. Just be prepared to fetch your own trash bags in the common area and remove your own trash to place in the garbage bins outside which seem to line the street daily.

Mostly good. Lavatory faucet only delivered a trickle of water. Also, would have liked at least one chair - something to sit on when you put on your shoes etc.

The description of the guest house is all a bit over-egged, so if you go expecting a bit less than promised you’ll be fine. My room was on the top floor, large room but lacking any real care to the layout (i.e. lots of space but not even a chair to sit in and a broken ironing board in the corner). Also as it was at the top the snazzy locking system didn’t work properly so I was able to get a key from the receptionist. Another issue being the water pressure for the shower, not a deal breaker - just takes longer to get the shampoo out. The early check-in fee isn’t very welcoming when you arrive to a new city, travelling 9 hours on a train and clearly I had a cold but I was still quoted the $40 extra for just one extra hour. It’s in their rules but still seems harsh. The house is in a fairly good location, tram stop outside and walkable to the garden district which has more food options.

Love the historic atmosphere and the tram stop just across the road. Didn't like that there was no one there to talk to, even someone there for an hour or two at set times would have been better. I was lucky when I checked in as there was someone there and she was very helpful otherwise I would have been in a room upstairs with no lift and as a 70 year old I would really have struggled with my luggage.

Place was clean but no live humans around to talk to. Historic means old means amenities may be weak, i.e. toilet flushed very weakly, shower flow very weak, but adequate. Many loud thuds to about 11:30 pm from inconsiderate guests.
