Arianna and her roommates are very nice and accommodating. The location is solid and within decent walking distance of the French Quarter. Fairly safe block.
The space is really an attic, not a "loft". It is accessed via a very narrow spiral staircase that I did not fit in and felt like I was going to fall every time I went up or down. The lone bathroom is not on the same level as beds, so you will have to go up and down a lot and sometimes have to wait for one of the 3 residents to get out of the shower. The ceiling is very low in the attic and I hit my head on lighting repeatedly. (I'm 6 feet tall). The bed we chose (there are two) was comfortable enough for a cheap bed and the bedding was about as budget as it gets. There is a lot of space in the attic so if you have 4 people, this is a good value but I'd skip if you don't. The bathroom wasn't very clean and there was mold in the shower. The nicest part of the place is the outdoor deck that is great for sitting outside in privacy.
