Although the car park was free & cost was cheap the feeling of being unsafe & insecure was not worth it. A very dodgy area - felt on edge whole stay - couldnt wait to leave! Rubbish breakfast - better to miss it! Paper thin stale bagels. Had a terrible nights attempt at sleep due to a barking dog next... More

This was my family's first trip together to New Orleans. Staying at the Olde Town Inn was a great way to make our trip the best. The room was cute and quaint. It had everything that you needed in the room. My favorite part of the whole thing was breakfast out on the patio. Even though we were there durring... More

This is the type of place that heralds back to a simpler time in New Orleans. This place is a simple yet lovely hotel with a beautiful courtyard and convenient location to Frenchmen Street where the real music in town is. It is romantic. It is simple. It is beautiful. It won't break your wallet. Nuff said More

I loved the Olde Town Inn. I was afraid it was going to be rough due to the extremely low price. i have paid much more for way less. Ginger was a hoot and very helpful. The breakfast was what you would expect @ a B&B. though i must say whoever makes the coffee needs a lesson in how to... More

Look, if I stayed in this hotel in Cedar Rapids I'd probably call it Grandma's place. Old accommodations, dated plumbing, uneven floors, thin walls, and an attitude that was more "take care of it yourself", rather than" how may I help you". So, if you are looking for the Waldorf or will freak out at the prospect of peaking your... More

This b&b is VERY CLOSE to the French Quarters which is excellent! My husband and I came down for a long 9 day vacation! Ginger was awesome and offered us lots of help. We were offered suite 30 and for us for a 9 day vacation it was a little small so truly it is small and spending 9 days... More

This was the worst hotel/B&B I have EVER stayed in. It was awful. I am from New Orleans. I live in California now and brought friends from California to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I was so embarrassed and mortified. I've stayed in "vintage" hotels/B&B's but , mold, water dirty and cramped hotels.... this was the first and last. I... More

Went last year with my boyfriend and two other friends, Stayed in the mini-suite. Have nothing but good things to say about this place...The character they pack into this place is unbelievable. The guests and staff were interesting and friendly. Felt safe walking after dark in this neighborhood. The room was small, but suited our needs just fine. Breakfast on... More

This place is dirty. The bathroom is just beyond words. No ceiling. We were able to hear everything that was going on in the upstairs room. It would be best if they shot it down. We found old cheese and cockroaches. Breakfast was outside and not really good. The second morning we had to ask for staff and got an... More

Dear Group, We take all complaints very seriously, and wish you would have given us a chance to rectify the problem when it happened and not after the fact. I myself checked you in on Friday and the Manager of Olde Town Inn (Ginger) worked 7-3 Saturday morning. We have 25 rooms and suites and could have moved you to... More
