Good if you set proper expectations

Thin walls, stained sheets, some purposely wonky construction techniques, HVAC controls a mystery, and did not receive our late arrival entrance code via email, so had to wait for an employee to come out to help us enter. All that said, it was an interesting communal experience. Definitely not luxurious, but for a younger person could be a lot of fun. Great location, street parking easily accessible.

Very unique hostel property. Near enough the French Quarter and VERY near Frenchman Lane to be convenient for walking. Staff and management are fantastic. Room clean and neat but no in suite bathroom- shared. Bunkroom next door was noisy until ~ 1AM but it was new years, so OK. Area around property is borderline sketchy so watch yourself and car.

Great little spot for inexpensive community vibes!

We have never stayed in a hostel before and for our first this is a great place to start, all others may pale in comparison. This home is historic and it is humid here but the place was really clean. I liked being able to come and go as I pleased. My only request would be for better water pressure.

Great place to stay. Very cozy hostel with so much character. The staff was absolutely amazing. Biggest compliant was our flight was late so we couldn't spend more time there.

The location, price and atmosphere were great. This is a hostel run by young travelers with great attitudes. They organize daily events and we were lucky enough to enjoy vegetarian jambalaya and the company of other residents and staff. Our room was private with ensuite bath and patio. I will recommend Madame Isabelles to my friends and hope to return in the future.

I had a great stay here. So many amazing people to meet and a fun, chilled atmosphere that the staff have worked hard to foster. It’s in walking distance to the best live music. Beatrice and Sean are so helpful. The only downside for me is the mosquito issue. I know they are trying to fix it though and it’s difficult to do in New Orleans. Also, I hope they introduce recycling. Would still happily stay here again and am grateful for my time there. I hope to return.

There was no parking available as advertised. I was promised a refund. The area was unkept and not cleaned. I booked here because it was recommended by AARP. I am so disappointed. I wound up spending $231.00 for a quick rest place. Please help me get my money back.
