It has roaches the sofa was supposed to be used as a pull out bed but it was broke and the mattress you could feel the coils coming through so therefore my family members had to sleep in the chair and on top of the couch. It was very uncomfortable, they had so many rules of what they would charge if the towels had makeup on them but the towel I grab to use had makeup on it before I used it, I know this place is apart of New Orleans history but it needs to be updated. The pool had leaves in it due to a tree hanging directly over it which is not good because who wants to swim with the leave. It was truly a waste of money.

The Jean Lafitte House website is utterly deceptive. We self-checked-in to our ‘loft apartment’ just after 5pm on a Friday. No staff on the premises. Our third-floor walkup apartment (the biggest one they offer) was dark, dingy, and extremely dirty. The furniture was shabby and there was a cheap rug permanently curled near the kitchen that posed a tripping hazard. Photos on the website for this apartment are staged with extra pillows and flash to give it light. The floors were sticky and the rugs not vacuumed. In the main living space, one overhead light was nowhere near enough to read or work. We were put off enough to leave and seek another hotel. Do NOT stay at Lafitte!! It has none of the charm of New Orleans that we were expecting.

6/10 Okay

Suggested areas requiring improvement.
The hotel had a lot of character, but certain things were in need of upgrading/revamping - pool/pool area and steps were tatty. TV and a socket not working. I stayed for 8 nights and the room wasnt touched during that time.

Well, if we decide to come back to New Orleans again, this is a place I would not stay at because of the climbing of the stairs is not said in the article where I booked I have a plate in my knee and had trouble walking up and down the steps going to the place and to the bedroom very disappointed but next time I’ll call instead of book online to make sure that what I have is what I want

Great Place to stay!
We really liked the accommodations. Wasn't sure upon arrival but once inside we loved it. Very quaint New Orleans. Will stay again but will book parking in advance as they only have 5 parking spots but we got lucky and was able to park across the street. Very convenient to walk the French Quarter.

The hotel is a great historic place. It needs a lot of restoration done. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the rooms we rented were very dirty and it took away from the overall experience.

We liked the neighborhood's proximity to all the clubs on the French Quarter, yet it's distance to insulate from noise. It is a nice courtyard-style. The rooms were clean and spacious for a historical building and we had a kitchen in our unit. Our only complain was that the blinds on the door didn't cover the window properly and would allow a person to easily view inside the room. We bought some cheap black-out panels from Macy's and fixed this. (Which also fixed the ambient light problem as we are "dark" sleepers.) The day we were checking out a man came to replace that blind. I would stay here again, paid parking is one block away, very convenient. We didn't get a chance to use the pool, the weather was a bit chilly.

Good value. Great proximity to the French Quarter. Very walkable. I only wish the blinds covered the windows fully so that I wasn’t visible from the outside.
