Location-It was a little less than a mile to the outskirts of Frenchman & Bourbon Streets. Definitely walkable, if you don’t mind walking. Marigny is our favorite neighborhood to stay in when we visit New Orleans. It is typically quieter than staying in the French Quarter. Parking space right across the street from the gated entry. It was always available even with it being the weekend before Fat Tuesday.
LiKes: relaxing patio area, plants and a fountain. Very peaceful. Bed was comfortable. Shower was nice. Has a fridge and microwave.
Would NOT recommend for more than two people, if you have young children, you are older and have mobility issues, or you health conditions making it difficult to climb stairs. Fairly steep spiral staircase going up to the loft. If you come home intoxicated-be careful, not that that happened on our trip to Mardi Gras. 🤨 The space is very small; we left our large suitcase downstairs due to the logistics of trying to get it up the narrow spiral staircase, which made the downstairs rather cramped.
Would stay here again, but not more than a few days at a time. To be fair, we have stayed at several other BNB’s in NOLA many of which are small. When we visit NOLA we know we are not going to hang out in the room, but to experience all of the FUN the city has to offer. Our accommodations are just a place to shower and sleep. If you are planning to spend a lot of time in your BNB you may want to consider another option. There is not really an area to ‘hang out’ or socialize.
Please don’t let this sway your decision from staying here otherwise, it was perfect for what we needed.
