The bed and both couches have sprung springs and are uncomfortable to sit and sleep on. It is not "cheerful" as advertised -- it's dark and cave-like. If you're at all sensitive to, or even aware of smells, you'll notice that there's a weird not-good smell in the bathroom. The whole place is fairly clean, thankfully. There is a nice front porch to sit out on. And it's close to the Canal St Street car. I did not enjoy returning to the place after a day out as there was no comfortable place to sit or sleep and it was so gloomy and dark
