The stay started with the front desk staff greeting us outside the hotel and helping my mother and I with our bags. She had the keys ready and helped... us up to our room and got us settled. My mother is closing in on 70, and somehow the need for a handicapped room wasn't communicated to them, but the guests in the downstairs double-queen room agreed to switch the next day. The upstairs room was utterly charming - an L-shaped room with a fireplace and a window that looked out over Ursulines. The bathroom in both rooms were recently renovated with nice fixtures and covered in new marble tiles, and the beds were very comfortable. It was late when we got in, and she also recommended a nice neighborhood grocery, Verdi Marte, which provided an extremely satisfying sandwich for each of us. The downstairs room was spacious and comfortable. The courtyard and the rooms are very charming, the staff are very friendly and accomodating providing recommendatings and making reservations for us. The neighborhood is quiet and close to wonderful shops on Royal Street, and a nice stroll from the French Market and Cafe du Monde. For a leisurely morning, head down Ursulines to Croissant D'Or, right across Royal Street, grab some pasteries and some coffee from the hotel lobby and have a nice breakfast in the courtyard. The only criticism I had was that the cleaning staff would sometimes forget to put a liner in the wastebasket or give us more cups to replace the ones that they pitched.
