I booked this place for a bday trip and wanted to love it. And there were many things to like about itāthe location was walking distance to the FQ and close to Frenchmen, the bar was great, the room was unique and provided a nice home base for my trip.
Based on the photos on Expedia, however, I didnāt gather that the room I was reserving would be on the first floor/street level. Or that it would have two doors directly opening to the sidewalk surrounding the bar (no windows). I did enough research to know it was likely Iād be staying somewhere loud if I stayed near the FQ or Frenchmen but I didnāt know Iād be staying on the street level here and the noise made it impossible to get any sleep, even with the sound machine the inn provides. It wasnāt the bar music that bothered me. It was the sound of people talking directly outside the room, the sounds of the bar being closed down for the night (trash being taken out, bottles clanking, etc.) until 3:30-4:30 AM, and then the trash trucks coming by in the early AM. I imagine the sound buffer would be a lot better in the rooms in the upper levels so I do not mean to dissuade anyone from staying hereāthis is a nice inn and I would probably consider staying here myself again if I could get a room upstairs.
I didnāt come to New Orleans to rest but staying in the Marigny Suite on the street level made it impossible to get the sleep necessary to make it through sightseeing and exploring, given the noise levels directly outside the room.
