The aesthetic of the place is very fun and whimsical which I enjoyed and the person checking us in was nice. That being said, the property itself was very musty and had a distinct cigarette smell very prominent. There was also hair on the towels in the kitchen, and the bedding was itchy. Overall if I was just rating on the fun experience part it would be good, but the cleanliness or lack of brought this rating down a lot.

This was my first trip to New Orleans and I couldn't have been happier with the historic Mardi gras inn. Jazmin and Sean/Shawn were both amazing. Jazmin gave us great recommendations for food in the area and Sean was able to give us great recommendations for drinks and the night life. We will definitely stay here again the next time we come to town. Our room was super cute, the courtyard was quiet and relaxing, and everything we needed or wanted was within walking distance. I highly suggest the peach cobbler factory around the corner of the inn. Can't say enough good things about the historic Mardi gras inn.

Budget friendly

This is a great budget hotel. Free street parking. Their rooms are all different. Had a plumbing issue in a small room with no closet or hooks at all. Got moved to a bigger nicer room with a closet rack and frig. Staff is very nice. Good value.
