We loved the bar drinks and the super cute, safe street it's located on. Parking was easy, and our room was surprisingly spacious -- perfect for the kids to spread out after a long drive. This will definitely be our go-to stop when driving from Texas to Florida. Always on the hunt for a good halfway point, and this one checks all the boxes!

I would not recommend staying at this hotel…read more Upon arrival, the front desk attendant was repeatedly hacking and coughing and appeared visibly ill. It was not the first impression I expected when checking into a hotel. Unfortunately, the room itself was also disappointing. The carpet was dirty, there was an old cough drop and a granola bar underneath the bed, and the air vent blew dust into the room when it turned on. These issues made me question how thoroughly the room had been cleaned before our stay. To make matters worse, there was a wedding taking place at the hotel, and the reception appeared to be directly outside our room. The music was extremely loud and continued until around 9:30 p.m. Traveling with a small child, this made bedtime difficult and significantly impacted our experience. The restaurant experience was equally frustrating. I ordered chicken tenders for my child, but they arrived covered in a spicy buffalo-style sauce, making them inedible for a young child. I charged the meal to my room and only discovered several days later, after requesting an itemized receipt, that a 22% tip charge had been added. I was never informed of this 22% tip charge when ordering. When I called to ask about it, the manager explained that the 22% charge was for room service tip. However, the food was never delivered to my room. I was required to walk to the restaurant and pick it up myself. While I didn't mind retrieving the food, I do mind being charged a substantial tip for a service that wasn't provided. To make matters worse, my hands were full carrying three drinks and a bag of food back to the room, and one of the overfilled drinks spilled along the way. I also spoke directly with the hotel manager regarding the 22% tip charge. I explained that I was never informed ahead of time that this charge would be added and that the food was not actually delivered to my room. Instead, I had to walk to the restaurant and pick it up myself. The manager did not seem concerned that I was being charged what was described as a room service fee without receiving traditional room service. What bothered me most was not just the charge itself, but the lack of transparency and the apparent unwillingness to acknowledge why a guest might find that frustrating. If they had actually delivered the food themself I would have tipped more. The combination of the dirty room, excessive noise, unexpected charges, and poor dining experience made for a very disappointing stay. I would not stay here again and would not recommend either the hotel or the restaurant.

The bathrooms were clean. The staff were helpful. I will stay there again making other arrangements knowing I cannot utilize the sofa bed.

My fiancé and I came for a few days and I cannot get over our stay at this Bed and Breakfast. Only…read moreabout 30mins from Nola, across a bridge, which wasn't bad at all. Linda (the owner) gave us a fair&unbeatable price for the Larger poolside suite despite it being Mardi Gras, Valentine's day, as well as it being the weekend when we arrived. Linda was a DOLL! She took care of us, fluffed our room when we were out & reloaded our fridge with breakfast daily. She showed us around the place and welcomed us like family. I truly felt like I was at mom's house. True southern hospitality. We had a few good talks about the history of her house and her life as she once lived in New Orleans. My fiancé enjoyed talking with Linda as New Orleans is where he was born and raised. Despite our talks, Linda does not hover! Which was so appreciated, when you're on a "romantic"vacation. We had our own privacy during our stay as each suite is separate and inaccessible from where Linda stays in her home. We came and went as we please and used the hot tub at night as late as we wanted. We had our own private entrance, which was incredibly nice. The privacy was appreciated as I didn't know what to expect when we first arrived, but I was prepared to be open minded. I think I will always choose a Bed and Breakfast over a lousy hotel in the future. The rooms were grand and clean. The bathroom was nice and the shower as well. Everything was clean. Its just an old house, but I loved the cottage vibes. It was home-y. The town is walkable and cute! A Mardi Gras parade came right through down the street, during our last day there, which was nice. The poolside porch and hot tub made me feel like I was at a resort. The beauty of the home is breathtaking! Romantic cottage vibes! Perfect for couples or even a small girls trip. I will definitely be back to Linda's next year when we visit again for Mardi Gras. Linda has made me never want to stay at a hotel again.

I checked in online and used the digital key, so I never interacted with the front desk, and I checked out through the app without reviewing my bill. A few days later, I noticed a bar charge that wasn't mine. As a cancer survivor, I don't drink alcohol. I emailed the hotel manager right away to request a credit but received no response. When I contacted the Hilton helpline, they said the manager had confirmed the charge as valid. I pushed back, and about a week later the charge was finally reversed. It was only $17.30, but it was about the principle. Staff should verify names when posting charges to a room. Be sure to review your bill at checkout.

The staff at the front desk was very welcoming upon arrival. I think managers name is Kim. She was very nice and professional. We were offered one of the new renovated rooms and felt like it was about 90% complete. If I were the owner of this hotel I would not be satisfied with the construction efforts. The workmanship quality is very poor. We stayed in room 314. - The bathroom door did not shut unless you used your shoulder to close the door. - The back of the bathroom door was not painted properly. - The sink cabinet looked worn and already scraped up on the bottom. - The caulking between the tile and the walls was not complete. - Toilet was wobbly. - We did not get maid service. Although we saw the maids on our floor the majority of the day. - The king bed came with only four standard small pillows. We asked for two more and they were provided by a friendly cleaning person. Yet we didn't get serviced?!? - We had no working phone in the room for three days. We did report it on day two and someone came out but it was not fixed and there is not a note left by maintenance. - The TV Guide provided did not match the TV channels. - a/c unit kicked on and off all night although it was set to high fan and not auto. Breakfast provided the morning was good.
