The hotel closed while we were out. We were not informed and no instructions were left. It resulted in us having to get the Police, eventually a manager from a sister hotel arrived to let us in to get our belongings including money and passports.This was not a nice experience and should never have happened.

The only issue we had was the trains at night. I don’t think even double glazing would resolve that. Very loud and constant all through the night.
Location was great. The staff friendly and knowledgable. The bed was large and comfortable.

The bathroom had lots of dark hair on the shower walls when we arrived. The next day we asked if someone could come and clean it and no one did, so we cleaned it. Also, no mini fridge in the room.
Property is conveniently located. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The brick wall was crumbling directly onto the pillows. We ended up moving the pillows to the other side of the bed because we didn’t want to eat brick wall during the night or have it fall in our eyes

It was super noisy not from the outside festivities, you could hear everything in the hotel from guests. Showers, the elevator, there was an inch gap in the door so the room was super cold. The room was slated downwards so you felt like you were already drunk.
Great location and staff. Super helpful and willing to assist with ideas and hold bags. It was cute and had a lot of history.

“Perfect French Quarter Location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 3 nights
The bathroom was a bit underwhelming; the shower faucet dripped, the fan didn't remove humidity, and the tiles were showing their age. Our window overlooked the external staircase. Allowing in any outside light would have made us on full display, so we had the shade drawn at all times. Both of these were very minor and didn't impact our trip or enjoyment of the Inn. They are likely just luck of the draw on room assignment.
The property is very well located but also quiet, comfortable, and well appointed. The staff was very friendly. We did not use the outdoor space or pool but both looked enjoyable. The luggage storage was efficient and easy. A coffee house accessible by interior hallway was appreciated when it rained.

“Great location but not enough to justify the cost for what you get.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 5 nights
The cost is far too much for what you get. I understand the location is excellent, but they charged me more than what was quoted on Booking for a two person room. It was my friend and I for 3 nights and just myself the last 2 nights. I was dinged for two people for all 5 nights. In hindsight, I should have booked a place with breakfast included, especially for this price!! I am still in shock at the cost for 5 nights.
The location is fantastic. It is close to all the tourist attractions and there are some great restaurants nearby (Napoleon House, Café du Mond, and Laura's Chocolates). The historic tram is right across the street and the historic Natchez ferry is right in front. I had a view of the Mississippi river.
