We had a great stay! Our host was absolutely fabulous, served a lovely breakfast every morning and had great recommendations on things to see and do. Would definitely stay here again next time we come to New Orleans. The house is amazing and old so be aware, there are some steep stairs up to some of the rooms.

For starters Karen is simply incredible. Shortly after booking she called me and I could tell immediately that she was an extra special hostess. From recommendations of things to do (Zydeco Fest, Day of the Dead events, music and food), Karen was super helpful. She even went out of her way to put rose petals on our bed as surprise for my girlfriend. Lolo is an excellent chef and made sure our bellies were full for each days new adventures. The location is right on Frenchman and the live music is insane! Staying at the R&B was like staying with friends. We can’t wait to return and stay with Karen and Lolo again. 10stars times 10 isn’t enough!

As soon as we stepped out of the classic house built in the 1800s, we could hear jazz music playing in the distance. The parking on half of the street is free. Across from the bed and breakfast is a bakery and a park—perfect for people watching. Karen, the innkeeper, made sure we had a personal experience. She cooked breakfast and provided snacks, as well as explained the best way to see the city. R&B is on the quieter side of the corner. It is within walking distance of the French market, Bourbon Street, and the streetcar. Our room was clean and quiet. We will stay here again and highly recommend!

Layed back and close to everything!
The owner was super nice! She even stood in the rain to save us a parking spot and helped us in with our bags! She informed us all about New Orleans and was easily accessible throughout our stay! If you want to feel like you are staying with family this is the place for you! If you are expecting a gourmet breakfast every morning then maybe not. The building is old and beginning to act cranky so just be aware of that too!

1869 building, think again.
Could not control the temperature in the room so it was either too cold or too hot. There is a fan but it’s not enough. The window is blocked out and so there’s no light from the outside coming in, feels like a cell. Standing water in the bathtub after our for shower. They did correct that by day two. The breakfast was disappointing. A bunch of packages from Costco type muffins and packaged food. The area is not safe feeling. Many homeless in the park across the street. Someone was murdered by gunfire on our street a half hour before we arrived.

We loved the location. The area had many live music venues and good food options. We weren’t in the middle of tourist district but we were within blocks of the French Quarter. We missed the owner at check-in so we were unable to use the free drink coupons she provided. She upgraded us to Mardi Gras suite which was nice bc we had our own AC; however it had a queen bed, and we requested a king. The breakfast was good. Quiche day 1 and French toast day 2. There were cereal options, fruit and yoghurt. Coffee and juice drink. Overall, it was a perfect stay.

Great B&B
This is an older building on Frenchmen St in the Marigny neighborhood. It is a quirky area with several bars and restaurants. It can get loud and busy on the weekend. However, you can walk to the French Market and the French Quarter in 10 minutes or less. The Inn is beautiful. There is a great little fenced in courtyard to enjoy breakfast and relax in when the weather is nice. The Inn Keeper, Karen, was wonderful and welcoming. She provided a nice breakfast every morning and made sure there was food available to snack on at all times of the day. The furnishings were beautiful. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

Karen, the inn keeper was absolutely amazing. She treated us like family from the moment we arrived. She showed us around, gave us tips & told us what we must try & see. The property was beautiful and the patio was our favorite place to sit around and chat. It was in the perfect location for night life on Frenchmen street.
