Location is one of the best in the quarter; it doesn’t get loud at night and is walkable to Frenchman St. The bed was also really comfortable, and the room decoration was really cute. The only downsides were that the sink faucet was very low (can’t fill a water bottle) and also, there was no dresser in the room to store folded clothes. Still, a really great and cost-effective option for a cute, quiet, private stay - which can be hard to find in such a busy area!

Our stay in New Orleans was absolutely wonderful. The room had such a beautiful charm — full of character and that classic New Orleans feel that made it extra special. The location was perfect: close enough to walk to everything, yet far enough from the noise on Bourbon Street to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep. It was also very close to the French Market, which made exploring and grabbing food so convenient.

We had an amazing stay and truly enjoyed every minute. We will definitely be staying here again!

I did not think it was possible to find a quiet place in the French Quarter till I stayed here. Even on New Year's Eve, there was minimal noise.
It's great to stay in an historic property so close to all the action but far enough away to sleep well.
Frenchman Street and all of its live music is a 10 minute walk away.
Favorite locals food joints Coop's Place, Clover Grill and Verti Marte are also no more than a 15 minute walk from the property.
The AC worked well and so did the heater (temps went from near 80 to below 40 during the Christmas week.)
French Quarter architecture, history, museums and much more are all within walking distance. It's even less than a half hour's walk to Canal Street and the CBD.
The room is small but efficient. Comfy bed, full bath, mini fridge, coffee maker and just enough room to store your stuff.
I could here other guests at the inn -- through the old walls -- but they got quiet by 11 p.m. at the latest.
The shared patio was great for sitting at while it was warm out.
Other guests were great about observing quiet hours.
There is zero on site staff, but the operators are quick to answer emails. An extra blanket and sheet was quickly dropped off.
I had a small issue with mold in the wall AC/heat unit. I did not notice till I caught a respiratory issue on my final day.
The property addressed the issue (and I hope -- cleaned the wall unit before the next guest used my room.
Overall, a very cost effective way to immerse in New Orleans history.

The walkway to The Blue Room (Room 5) and Room 6 is very narrow and has air conditioning units extending about 8 inches just below one's shoulder height. I was unable to get my suitcase up the 3 steps to my room only by semi-crawling and pushing it up the stairs. My handicap stand up walker was even more difficult to get up to my room. There are no notices of the narrow corridors when booking it. If you are handicapped, only Rooms 1 to 4 have normal access.

This is a historic building that is in deep need of a dehumidifier. You have to run the window A/C unit to cut the damp in this small room. The window A/C unit is full of black mold, so in essence you blow black mold air at yourself the whole time.

Perfect retreat for my celebration of life trip to NOLA! The Bunk House room is a gem with its unique, solid bunk bed and dreamy wall art creating a magical ambiance. Though not large, the room is thoughtfully organized, feeling spacious and functional. The powerful AC and fan were lifesavers in the heat, and the shower's water pressure was incredible after city explorations.
Loved the practical touches - great coffee maker, mini-fridge and microwave for storing late-night po' boys from NOLA Poboys on Bourbon Street.
The location is unbeatable - steps from Golden Lantern, minutes from major attractions, yet surprisingly peaceful day and night. I was just 6 minutes from Lafitte's where my friend's second line began, and could easily stroll to Jackson Square and Frenchman Street.
The charming courtyard with magnolia trees offered a tranquil space between adventures. Hosts were attentive without being intrusive, and their comprehensive guest book provided excellent local recommendations.
Royal Barracks gave me an authentic neighborhood feel with tourist-free access to popular spots. It connected me with my late friend's spirit of adventure in ways a standard hotel couldn't. Whether solo or with a companion, the Bunk House offers a peaceful, convenient, uniquely New Orleans experience. Already planning my return!

The location and privacy of the guest house is fantastic! It has quintessential old New Orleans charm. The bed was clean and comfortable, and the shower hot. AC cold. A dehumidifier in the room helped keep it even more temperate.
That said, the property is in dire need of some love and upkeep. The courtyard is lovely, but needs cleanup and mosquito treatment. Wi-Fi was impossibly slow at times. A curtain rod in my room kept falling down. Lots of dust bunnies. It met my needs, but I probably wouldn’t stay here again.

Nice small room

It was a nice, small room, but there was no window, and the air could feel a little sticky. The air conditioning was also very loud.
Since the room is connected to the neighboring room by a door, we could hear the neighbors quite a bit.

Historic, Eccentric, Perfect

A historic property loaded with laid-back charm. Perfect jumping off spot for Frenchman Street > Marigny > Bywater excursions or for being adjacent to Bourbon Street without being in the smell. Back patio is neighborly. Across the street from the rich pageant and deep community of the Golden Lantern and two blocks from the best burger in town at the Port of Call, stay at the Royal Barracks if you're into the eccentricity and creativity of NOLA.

Affordable in the French Quarter

Perfect place to stay in the French Quarter. Close to everything. (Bourbon St bar area and French market a 10 minute walk) Affordable. Easiest check in and check out ever. Code given to you over email. Garden Room was appropriate for French Quarter. Lots of charm. Room is small, but we spent no time in it anyway. Mattress probably needs an upgrade. Walls are thin. Didn’t bother us because we have teens/early 20 kids so we can fall asleep anywhere. Neighborhood is safe. They can accommodate big groups with connecting rooms, but I found it perfect for couples looking to experience the French Quarter without a car for a few days.

Staff were responsive and helpful. The guest house is cozy, charming, and secure. It is in a quieter area of the French Quarter with quick access to everything nearby. Keep in mind the age of the building and the small size of the rooms, but don't let that scare you away if you're looking for an immersive experience. Don't bother renting a car, just uber to and from the airport. You wont need it. You may want to stop at a grocery store for a few items to stock your mini fridge as the nearby grocers are small.

The room and its furnishings were quite worn. It was cold, and there was only an oil space heater for warmth. The patio was unkempt. I would not stay here again. I left after one night though I had reserved for more.

For a single man ok but door was tried twice from outside plus the curtains didn't cover the door properly which was right near the shower!

The decor was perfect for the French quarter. Really gave us a New Orleans experience. Clean property with comfy bed. Cute Court yard. We had very friendly neighbors. Only bad thing was the area was super dark and it was difficult finding the property.

This was our first time in NOLA, and this house was perfect!! We loved the back patio area! It was very walkable to all the places we wanted to see! Thank you so much! J&T Pettit

Great location not too far from the chaos of Bourbon St.
Conveniently close to the jazz clubs on Frenchman.
Quiet part of the quarter, and great communication from hosts!!

This is a hidden gem in the French Quarter. Just a short walk from the bustle of Bourbon St, but still separate enough that you have some peace and quiet at night. The room itself was overflowing with what feels like authentic NOLA character, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Great location

The best was being close to bourbon street. Room was clean but was small. Overall I would stay again as long as it doesn’t rain. Unfortunately the rain dripped hard on the air conditioning unit and kept us up.

The Bunk Room was so quaint and perfect for a weekend stay. Easy walk to everywhere. Location perfect between French Quarter and Marigny. I was traveling alone this trip, but will stay again in one of the larger rooms with my spouse. Service responses were very fast and courteous.

We were only in town for a couple of days and this quaint little guesthouse was not only a quiet, secure space for us to stay but also a convenient walk away from Bourbon Street, the French Market, and Frenchmen Street! Even though there is no staff onsite, they are very communicative, helpful, and friendly. The room was quite small but perfect for us! We will definitely stay here again on our next trip back!

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans? I sure do! This was our 2nd time at the Barracks and even being under new management, it was still a dream! Easy, no contact check in and out, clear instructions, and plenty of info. on who to call if there is a late night issue.

The property itself is stunning.The courtyard possesses a magic about it, that is only emphasized by the twinkling lights, cobble stone path, and soft blues music playing throughout the evening. Inevitably, chance encounters you meet will become chosen and cherished family from all walks of life as you wonder if this was predestined?

We stayed in the Garden Room this time, which was a slight upgrade from the Blues Room in size, but no less accomodating! Soft bed, clean linens, and a lovely renovated bath. We visited in August so the AC units in each room and the double freezers producing ice in the courtyard were a life saver! All of the rooms are decorated beautifully, but the photos in the Garden Room are beyond captivating!

Overall, our 2nd stay topped the first! The only issue I would remedy is an upgrade to the music system in the courtyard. The music adds to the ambiance, but the CD player is not long for this world.

Convenient spot, would stay again!

Simple clean cozy space in a prime location. Edge of the Quarter so none of the noise, just the other side of Esplanade from the Marigny, so a very walkable location. Bed was comfortable and the air conditioning worked like a charm!

Quiet little house with individual rooms to rent. It worked well for us just needing a place to sleep and shower. Room was well air conditioned. Bed was too soft. And head of the bed was lower than the foot. Im assuming this has to do with the foundation sinking, but could and should be corrected. Room and bathroom were clean when we arrived to check in. Close to pretty much everything and easy to walk to and from to enjoy the city.

I booked the Jazz room for Essence weekend. When I entered the room there were a few flies but it was not a big deal. The problem started when I opened the shower and a huge cockroach was on the floor. I took a picture of it and flushed it. While I was sleeping ants were crawling on me. I reached out to management saying that I didn’t feel comfortable staying there because of the bugs. They told me that the room was cleaned before I got there. I emailed the pictures of the bugs I had taken and their only solution was to send a maintenance worker to spray bug spray. They didn’t even offer a different room. I then decided to leave and stay somewhere else. They have refused to refund me anything although I only stayed one night with unwanted guests. I only wanted a partial refund and was told that they couldn’t because of the hurricane & because they have a cleaning crew. I sent all my pictures to management and they were no help.
