Kevin was a great host. He made us feel welcome with our arrival and was super friendly. The room's wooden floors were clean and nice to walk out on after exiting the bathroom. The hot water is plentiful, just make sure you don't have the bathroom heater on at the same time.
We chose this place over others because of the price mostly, but also thinking, it was right next to the Orleans bus. We thought the RTA transit system would be somewhat dependable given the app and GPS locations of buses, but they were awfully inconsistent. They sometimes arrived early by 10 minutes, but mostly late by ten minutes, which sets you back about 25 minutes if you miss. We suggest making sure that if you have scheduled tours, you leave 30 minutes earlier than planned or an hour earlier if you are planning to transfer rides. This has nothing to do with how great Kevin is, but it could affect your expectations of travel while staying in this location.
As of the time of this post, the Morning Call restaurant in the park is under reconstruction and will become a Cafe Du Monde later on. This was news to us when we walked over there for an evening trip. In contrast, District Donuts Sliders Brew was a great restaurant nearby. Everything else we experienced was in other areas of town.
We would also like to plug our favorite tour of the trip being "Catholic Tours of the Crescent City" where we learned a lot about the Catholic history of the city checking out some amazing churches, spots around town and a cemetery. https://www.ctccnola.com/about
