    Being that the property was old, the only way up to the room was through stairs and several sets of stairs. No elevator available. There are several first floor rooms for anyone handicap that can not use stairs. No valet parking but the parking lot was a few blocks from the hotel with 24/7 security.

    Perfect location next to restaurants, shopping and landmarks. Bourbon was only a few blocks away and not a long walk to Frenchman street. Property was clean and the rooms stayed cold.

    All the steps! If you are a biggie size person it is not fun to go up all the steps to get to a room and some steps and doorway are very narrow! The floors creek and are uneven. Depending on your room, your bathroom is nothing more than just a closet. You can't even sit straight on the toilet straight on, and it doesn't seem the matter what room. The shower is very narrow, so again, Heaven help you if you are a wide or bigger person.

    The look of the hotel is beautiful and the fact a tv show was filmed there is very interesting. A very nice front desk Lady moved us after I had let them know that, I no longer could stay there. Because I just couldn't keep going up and down all those steps to get to our room. She was able later that day to move us to a room, where I still had to go up the 2 flights. It did take me a minute to get up them...having bad knees and heavy set and not in my 20's anymore, but I finally got there. The staff is wonderful and so kind!! The hotel is nice but yes, should of looked into more before booking.

    The shower is tiny! We didn’t mind it too much but the shower head sprayed everywhere except where you needed it and in a small space that’s frustrating.

    The room is beautiful, clean and had everything we needed for our stay.

    No elevator and it’s difficult to get luggage in and around the building. The balcony overlooked a side street with vagrants, not Royal St. I wouldn’t pay extra for a balcony overlooking a side street.

    Great location and the front desk staff was very friendly.

    You can hear everything happening in the other rooms and it was basically like we were in their conversations if they were sitting in the courtyard. Location states no smoking but staff did nothing about all the people smoking right outside our room, we were worried we would get a $250 smoking charge just from other peoples smoke drifting in. Most of staff with the exception of one younger man was less than happy to be at their job. Check in felt more hostile than welcoming. The lady seemed like we were in the way of whatever she was doing before hand.

    Property was a good value and a great location.

    Needed more plugs in room and small refrigerator and microwave would have been nice so we could have had cold water and warmed up left overs. Had to move coffee pot in am just to plug it in somewhere. Bathrooms could use a little more cleaning but the rest of the room was great.

    The location was great to everything we wanted to do and see. Staff was amazingly nice and helpful. Room was clean and bed was comfortable

    So I did not like the description on booking. When we made the reservation, I was under the assumption that we would have balconies since we got more expensive rooms, but at the location, we learned there were even more expensive rooms that had balconies but the ones we got did not. The problem is in the pictures shown for the rooms, there were balconies. My only complaint about the hotel itself is that there are a ton of stairs and no elevator, but I personally feel the stairs helped with the authenticity of the location and an elevator may have taken away from the feel. Just make sure you ask for a floor room if you have difficulty with stairs.

    Loved the location, and the hotel itself was beautiful. There was one front desk worker we loved. He was very accommodating and helped us in every way possible. He gave us insight to the trolleys and was an amazing asset to this hotel.
