NOLA visit for Super Bowl
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our hosts Beatrice and Darrell and the location was perfect for easy access to the French Quarter and downtown. The beds were a little tired but we otherwise all was wonderful. Thanks for a great stay!!

History with a bit of rust
Very nice historic house and experience. Great mattress and bed overall. The facilities a bit neglected and in need of some modernization, like for example the windows, a bit of cleaning and insulation would be good. Great traditional breakfast and very nice staff.

Lovely stay at the Fairchild House BnB
My stay at the Fairchild House B&B was really lovely. The property is centrally located and it was easy to get anywhere on foot or by utilizing public transportation. It is an historic property, which is great, but a little rough around the edges. Would not categorize it as luxurious, but I also did not pay the price for luxury accommodations. If your priorities are location and customer service, this is a wonderful option.

Charming
We had a great stay here! We didn’t want your typical hotel for New Orleans. We wanted something unique! This place was perfect. The staff were so friendly, the breakfast was delicious, the room was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location to base your New Orleans trip!
We would definitely stay here again. The location is very convenient for access to what you want to see in New Orleans. The site has free parking. There are several restaurants in walking distance and the stop for the cable car to Canal and Bourbon down St Charles is nearby. The host welcomes everyone with genuine hospitality. The breakfast area is nice and we spent the mornings meeting some of the other guests from around the country. The breakfast selections are nice. The property and three buildings are from the 1800’s so this isn’t a shiny new Hampton Inn. But the property is in very good shape. Our room was quiet, access in and out was easy with a gate key and room key. The host contacted us to be sure someone was there to meet us on our arrival.
