The Quisby is perfect if you’re looking for a place to stay for a quick vacation in New Orleans. I chose an all female room to try out the hostel experience and thank god it was a good one. My roommates were all peaceful and respectful. Unfortunately some probably couldn’t say the same judging by the yelling a couple doors down ._. but that’s always a possibility when different people stay in the same room. The rooms are simple but comfortable with a single bathroom (towel provided at check-in), two bunk beds (twin size?) with pillow and comforter, one locker for each top bunk and two drawers for the bottom bunks (locks can be rented for I think $2). Check-in is easy because there’s always someone at the front by the bar and the common area is nice at the end of the night when everything quiets down. There’s breakfast in the morning and you’re able to do laundry for I think $5. They have little tips written on the blackboard wall up front, an info sheet, and some pamphlets in the rooms with suggestions of what to do while you’re there. If you’re not taking Lyft or Uber, the trolley stops are right in front and there’s also bikes to rent by the Wendy’s about two buildings down. Walking is a possibility, but once you go under the bridge towards Canal St and to the roundabout, it might feel a little sketchy alone, especially at night. Thankfully the doors are locked after a certain time and you can’t get in without your room key. Overall I had a great stay and I’d go back again.
