We enjoyed our room with it's comfy bed and pillows, small sitting room and updated bath with refrigerator. It was lovely to stay in a home built in the 20's with original hardwood flooring. Lots of snacks and coffee plus sodas and juices in the break room made us feel right at home. The huge screened in porch overlooking the MS River is also a comfy place to hang out and relax. Very quiet and our favorite restaurant, Black Velvet, is right next door. We will always stay at Patty's Place on our bi-annual trips to Buras, LA. Thanks for a wonderful vacation, Nichole.

Hey, if you're visiting New Orleans try out a day or 3 in the Mississippi Delta. The Le Matidora…read moreInn is the RT66 place to stay near the Big Easy. Located between Hwy 23 & Hwy 11 in history rich Plaquemines Parish on the Mississippi River. It's a 15 min. private flight or 1.5 hr. drive south from New Orleans. It's a moderately priced good 'ole southern fish camp style operation very close to Tuna Town (Venice, Louisiana). Venice is where the Mississippi River empties into the Gulf of Mexico - great for inshore & offshore saltwater fishing. Le Matidora will appeal to everyone from fishers to business travelers. To me, Le Matidora Inn is part of my life-long Great American Road Trip. It allows me to dip into a southern delta side-order of American life. Here are facility details: Le Matidora Inn is a converted residence with a unique 1st floor wood paneled common kitchen, entertainment & bar area for self-serve food prep. The kitchen is stocked with everything needed for cooking the fish you caught and other meals and crafting cocktails. The 2nd floor has updated rooms with a southern style balcony. Private cabins are available for groups. Outside is the salt water pool and a large lounge area for relaxing after a day on the Gulf. Bottom-line - a retro southern vibe with all the hi-tech necessities you will need. Now the fun stuff: Owner Malcolm Lincoln ("TMac") will fly you to & from the Inn. It's 15 minutes from New Orleans. TMac gave me a fly around of the city for a view from 1,500 ft. Private & General Aviation pilots can land & taxi right to the Inn. Get details from T-Mac or Rosemary 504-564-9300. Airport ID LS84. They are like family! Let's Talk Plaquemines: Nearby dining includes great seafood (oysters and crab cakes!) at Thompson's Kitchen, Port Sulfur. When at Venice Marina the Cajun egg rolls, cheese sticks & extra oysters complimented the Margaritas. On the water: Jonathan Ruffin/Venice Charters & his nephew Dylan took us 70 miles out at 5,000 ft. depth - a pair of Metairie firemen who drive a 32' Contender like a Maserati fire truck. Tuna, Rainbow Runners & Barricuda dominated our day. Everyone needs to see up close the big oil rigs on the Gulf - oil rigs are artificial reefs that are full of baitfish & larger gamefish. Also, salute the roughnecks onboard these engineering marvels - they are the first step in fueling our economy and our boats so we can slay 'em. USA!!!

The Inn contains several trailers each with two full beds, shower, sink, microwave and T.V. The space is tight so if you decide to share with an messy roommate only then will you feel overwhelmed. The rooms are cleaned daily unless there is a Do Not Disturb sign posted. There is an onsite ice machine but you need to have your own container(s). Towards the rear of the lot is a gazebo for grilling to wooden tables. The only negative I encountered was the lack of a washer/dryer. As a result, the staff in the main office will wash your clothes(no matter how greasy/grimy) for $1.50 per pound. Since I work in an open air environment most of my Fire-Retardant uniforms are wet/greasy causing it to weigh more(Hmmmm?). Almost forgot, cash only on your laundry dues. Finally, if you pay weekly its $75 a night; If not it's $85.

My two critiques are that the AC unit blows right under the window and makes the curtains open up - be mindful when you're in the room! Also, wifi is not available in the room, only in the lobby. I'd stay here again when in the area. We left before breakfast so don't get to comment on that.

It is pet friendly, but we left our pets at home. (One of the staff members was carrying her fur baby around.) The rooms provide basic, no frill accommodations. Our room had a twin and a queen. You can store your bags underneath the beds or in a rudimentary closet space. The bathroom boasts a full sized tub and shower. The sink is in the main part of the room. A coffee maker, small fridge/freezer combo, and microwave are provided. The a/c/heater combo works well. Make sure to bring your own coffee (ground), breakfast food, and a pillow if you like more than 1 or 2. The motel and area are still recovering from Hurrican Ida, but it was great to go fishing in the area again. We lost our camp during the hurricane, and this is the first time we have been back to fish. We will be back in the summer.

Now, the room neighboring us had a microwave cause I could here them using it... they also really loved repeatedly tearing foil off the roll. I'm short, even though we booked it for the night, we did not stay. We rather have drove the 3hours home instead of spending the night here. Staying at the Lighthouse hotel from now on.
