Experience: 4/5
First hostel I've ever stayed in. Select "women's dorm" or "mens dorm" for preference.
Four person dorms are nice if you're staying with a friend, but I was told this place also has queen beds if you're looking for a more private option (cheaper than a hotel)! The receptionist ~kindly~ allowed me to switch rooms to be with my friend, and I'm glad she did because there were other women of the same demographic with me and we all got along and made memories together.
Location: 4/5
You can catch the train/bus to bourbon street in French quarter. We pretty much walked or caught the train everywhere (bring your walking shoes), there are a lot of restaurants on the street and a bike rack around the corner which was really cool! The street itself is beautiful. The trees are lined perfectly which makes for a scenic bike ride.
Cleanliness: 3/5
Honestly it wasn't too bad, but I wasn't comfortable sleeping on the sheets and pillows knowing so many heads have touched them. Also the beds can be super close together and the bathrooms were not super clean, but clean enough. Bring shower shoes and a blanket! And your own towels. From my remembrance, there were not any hand towels or dry towels. I also didn't ask for any because I didn't feel comfortable knowing so many bodies touched them.
