Good location, good vibe, felt safe in the neighborhood

Ceiling fan in bedroom needs light bulbs replaced, also dust is so bad it is coming over the other side on the blades. Light fixture over the spiral staircase needs bulb replaced. Needs fresh soap daily as the soap is so thin it breaks in half when using. Towels should be replaced in the bath by staff. Only decaffeinated coffee was available in the kitchen which neither of us likes.... We were ok going up the spiral staircase to the bedroom in # 10 however you should let people know before booking it is a narrow staircase and steep.

The location of the property was perfect for our overnight stay. We traveled as a family of 5 (2 adults, 2 children, & a baby) and the 2 bedroom was more than comfortable. It was close by everything we wanted to visit (French market, cafe du monde, boardwalk, Jackson square, and local eateries). Everything was within comfortable walking distance. It was also right a street over from bourbon street for those visiting that part of the French quarter. Everything was super clean. The beds were comfortable. There were ear plugs provided as well which was a nice touch (though I wouldn’t visit a party town and expect silence). The view from the balcony was great. Also can’t beat the price! We’d definitely love to stay again on an adults only trip.

The sofa bed was really hard. My kid made it work. And there’s a lot of stairs so be prepared for a workout. My only recommendation is that the rooms be numbered at the bottom of the stairs (I.e. #1, 3, 5 <—- and #2, 4, 6 —->) since I had to climb all the way up on the wrong side trying to find our room. I heard someone else struggle with the same. If it were noted at the bottom of the stairs it would’ve been easier. But nothing that prevents us from wanting to return.

The staff was super polite. The property grounds and rooms were very clean for the age of the property.

The tiny spiral stair case but that just part of the available room selection. The worst part was the blow dryer has not been used in a long time and there were cobwebs and dead bugs in the back that show if you just look at it. Cleaning crew should be checking these during the post gust cleaning. Nowhere to store clothes upstairs. It would help to add a few hooks on the upstairs wall; nice decorative hooks that would allow a few hanging pieces of clothing.

There's seriously TOO many reasons! The staff was AMAZING (Amanda, Sasha, Lauren, Jermaine, Kalifa...) and so welcoming. Even the owner would stop by to check on things and interact w/ guests, exemplifying not only her New Orleans hospitality, but also her love & care for the Guest House. Naturally so...she "grew up" there! It was her father's property, and when he passed he left it to her😇 The whole place has an indescribable charm: the history of the building, the amenities, the location, etc... Everything was, and is, exactly what you'd want for a TRUE New Orleans experience.

Really? N/A

Honestly one of the best kept secrets probably listed on booking. If you are on the fence about booking it because of other reviews, just book it!! The 2 bedroom Loft at the very top of Jean Lafitte House is not meant for anyone who can’t climb stairs. It’s a lot of stairs, but so worth it!! The beds were comfortable. The space was clean, and the balcony was my favorite place to be. Close to Frenchmen Street, dive bars, great live music, and away from the hustle and bustle of Bourbon Street, but still walkable to Bourbon Street if that’s your thing. Will definitely book again!

Adding a couple of floor fans to the rooms would make this place perfect.

The staff, Amanda in particular, was wonderful! She is very professional, accommodating, and polite. The amenities are nice, such as a kitchen, with a refrigerator and stove, not to mention the dining room area! It's nice and very spacious. The courtyard is a nice place to chat with friends and family. This is a very quiet and cozy place to stay. We slept quite comfortably.

Please remove the creepy antique car from the parking area. It's located two car spots down from the big pothole.

Can't beat the location. Everything we wanted to see was Within a mile, usually within a few blocks. Easy walk to everything in the French quarter. Amazing to be in such a great central location within blocks of everything and still be quiet so you can rest up for the next day's Adventure

The room itself was beautiful well laid out and appointed but the couch was extremely uncomfortable even to sit on. I was planning on staying on the fold out couch but the mattress was very thin. So I just slept on the couch but the cushions sunk down into the frame. Very uncomfortable to lay on and even sit. There were also quite a few broken blinds that made privacy impossible. Surprising that something so easily and inexpensively corrected has not been addressed.

Incredible location, great for a group of friends, no frills as far as accommodations go, but we couldn't beat the convenience and it was clean/comfortable during down time.

There were big differences between the room decor/quality, but also I believe we paid more than our friends and upgraded to a suite. It truly exceeded my expectations!!! Also, nothing was *wrong* with the other rooms, I just wish there had been a little more parity.

Clean. Fantastic staff, loved Max and Blu. Beautiful piece of history to stay in. The water is hot. Beds are comfortable with clean soft sheets. Best part? Something went wrong with our stay and they went out of their way to make it right. Anyone can leave a good review when things go right, but I can honestly say that they are the BEST hotel I have ever stayed in when it comes to being concerned about their customers. They were exceptionally professional but then also deeply empathetic when we had something go wrong. Will be back and will recommend them absolutely.

Beautiful and historic! We loved all the antique furniture and despite their age all the accommodations were quite comfortable. The location was convenient and while we didn’t get to use the pool, it looked like a fun place to hang out. We had a lovely stay at the Jean Lafitte House and would definitely recommend this gorgeous little spot for anyone looking for a unique hotel experience in NoLa.

Unfortunately the rooms were a little dark, which is understandable due to the original architecture of the building, but some additional lights would’ve been helpful.
