Pros

Historic 1848 building with period architectural features including cathedral ceilings

Garden courtyard serves as a scenic wedding venue

Located in an artistic neighborhood known for Cajun bistros and jazz clubs

Walking distance to multiple local restaurants and entertainment venues

Cons

Limited room amenities in standard units

“This is a budget-friendly option that's all about location near the French Quarter and Frenchmen Street, plus the rare perk of flexible pet policies. I noted the Creole cottage style and courtyard add vintage New Orleans charm. For travelers prioritizing location and pet-friendliness over modern amenities, this could be a smart choice.”
