Stay at Historic Streetcar Inn, NOLA
It was a very enjoyable stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Bathroom looked brand new. The location is great for getting around NOLA. Streetcar stop right in front of hotel. Diane at the front desk was wonderful and very helpful. She deserves 5 stars!

A beautifully renovated historic property!
We stayed here while In New Orleans for a weekend trip. It is an absolutely beautiful property. We loved our balcony room. It was huge and very clean and we could walk right out of our room onto the street. We loved that it was literally right in front of one of the Stops for the St Charles Street car. We used that to get around the French quarter area. Communication from the property was great as well. There is street noise but they provided a white noise machine. We will absolutely stay here again when we come to town!!

Beautiful but no elevator or breakfast
Beautifully renovated old home - only downside was rooms were on second floor and no elevator for luggage but Diane agreed to hold the luggage and I only took what I needed for my brief overnight stay up the stairs. She was very helpful! However listing said breakfast was provided but only coffee/tea were available.

Halloween
The Streetcar in was good for just a one night stay. The rate was good for NOLA. The room was a bit small and wanky but with it being old that is just part of the charm. It is a bit of distance from town so get your walking shoes on as the cable car isn't always convenient, full or on time.

Something Different!
I had never stayed anywhere with no staff on the premises but it worked out well. I did have a problem with the tv and there was no one to help me solve the problem.

Never Again
I didn’t like the digital key to get into the rooms and the front door. Also they didn’t have early check in so we had to wait until 4 pm and we got off the cruise ship at 10 am

Tulane Parents/Homecoming Weekend
Was what we were expecting for the most part. Wish we could have gotten additional towels with a charge.
Diane at check in is great.
Location was convenient between downtown and Tulane, with street car stop right out front.
I would probably not stay there again, but it was by no means terrible. Just a few places we have stayed before, that were booked, that we like better.

Place was clean but no live humans around to talk to.
Historic means old means amenities may be weak, i.e. toilet flushed very weakly, shower flow very weak, but adequate.
Many loud thuds to about 11:30 pm from inconsiderate guests.

Mold on wall in Deluxe King Room
My husband and I stayed at the Historic Streetcar Inn for a wedding weekend. We were in the Deluxe King Room for 3 nights. Check inn was incredibly easy (you definitely need an up to date smart phone though). My operating system on my phone was too out of date to unlock the doors so I always had to have my husband with me. Coffee and tea are located on the first floor but it was clean and easy to find. Our room was spacious, bed was VERY comfortable. The one MAJOR drawback was that there was visible mold on the walls in our room. It was very unsettling. Unfortunately I never saw any front desk employee until the last day at check out so there was no one to complain to throughout our stay. For this reason alone I would not stay here again. The room and bathroom were clean overall other than the visible mold on the walls.

No frills - hidden gem
Booked this hotel to stay for a friends wedding in NOLA. Location was perfect for us. No parking lot but we were able to park on St Charles Ave. for most of the weekend, had to park around the corner for one night, but no problems.
We had one of the king size rooms on the 2nd floor. No elevator. Room was nice. Bathroom was a bit small but functional. Only mirror was over the sink in the bathroom so for me (getting ready for a wedding) was a negative. There is a small balcony overlooking St. Charles which is shared by guests. There is a courtyard patio to enjoy a coffee. Smoking is allowed on the patio. There are a couple of vending machines and the coffee/tea room. There are no other amenities. There is a streetcar stop on the corner right by the hotel. It is a no frills hotel but a convenient location, clean rooms, good price. We would stay again.

In general we enjoyed the hotel. The only downfall was the bed sagged in the middle. The amenities and the cleanliness were great. The location was right on the streetcar line, so we hardly had to drive our car.

Spacious room.
No cups, glasses for water. There was no area in the bathroom to set anything on to get ready. Small closet, no dresser. The ceiling fan would not run without the light being on also.

Oh man. The room that Historic Streetcar Inn put me in smelled like mold and I found a slug in the bathroom the last day. The only thing good about this room was the bed which was 10/10 comfy.
