8.1from 295 ratings

A creaky Creole townhouse where half the guests carry instrument cases and the nightly porch jam is better than plenty of cover-charge clubs. Frenchmen Street's four-bands-a-block strip is a two-minute stumble away. That geography cuts both ways: this is a place for people whose evenings end at 2am, and the box fans only partly cover the street noise. July and August, the ancient AC fights valiantly and mostly wins.

Why it earns the score

The porch jam and the address; nobody sleeps great, nobody seems to mind.

Will you sleep well?

The details that actually decide it — not the thread count in the brochure.

  • rear dorms face the courtyard
  • box fans for white noise
  • earplugs sold at the desk
