We had a wonderful time here, although it's a bit of a stretch to call it a luxurious stay. The architecture, beautiful courtyard and original touches throughout we're greatly appreciated and exactly what we were hoping for, but we were also hoping for a bathroom door that is able to close. We read other reviews about this, but decided it wasn't a big deal since we're not too picky. However, the door won't close at all and there's not a doorknob on the outside, so don't expect privacy to go to the bathroom (and it's not just because of the age of the home...). We were disappointed that there was no coffee or bowls, and when we arrived there were bread crumbs on the cutting board and drink rings on the counters. The area rug is so destroyed it really just needs taken out. The beds are very comfortable and we really enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings and mornings. Be prepared for noise, as you are right off Bourbon St and there's a bar that plays loud music all day. The mornings are quiet and you're a short walk from a lot of coffee shops, including Cafe Du Monde. We loved the location and exploring the local neighborhoods. This place is great if you're looking for a stay right in the French Quarter close to all the action.
