Great B&B!
My gf and I had the chance to visit this bed & breakfast recently.
It's a wonderful house built in the late 19th century with a good mix of classic and tasteful modern touches.
Rooms are furnished pretty well, and the common areas are a great place to relax over breakfast or the end of the day. There's always complementary cakes, tea, coffee around. Most drinks are very reasonably priced from a few dollars.
The innkeepers are very nice and go out of their way to help you with your travel plans. The service here is great.
The surrounding area is a residential neighborhood that's pretty low key, relaxing, and has a lot of cool houses. It's close to St Charles Street, which is great for walks. There is also a good number of cafes and restaurants within a mile of so. I did not expect this, but was pleasantly surprised.
It isn't close to the French quarter, but it's close to the tram stops on St Charles Street, which should take approx 15-20 mins to get there, or around $10 in cab fare. Parking is also plentiful in the area.
Only thing I didn't care for was the thermostat in common areas. We arrived during late December, and other guests often turned up the heater very high. This made it difficult for us to sleep at times, or woke us up in the middle of the night in uncomfortable 90 degree heat.
Also, the rooms can be a bit thin. We had Darth Vader in the room next to us when we stayed, and he kept us up with some extraordinarily heavy breathing.
Prices are very reasonable for what you get.
