With one of the best locations in the City, we are only minutes away by bus from downtown and the lively French Quarter. Explore the nearby Garden District with its antebellum mansions & gardens, above ground cemetery, and century old oak trees.

We are located in a village like complex of New Orleans style buildings. We offer comfortable spacious male and female dormitory style accommodations with ensuite toilets, showers, and lavatory sinks. We also offer private rooms with ensuite bath for 1 or more persons. Double rooms with private bath, queen size bed, and refrigerator are also available.

Exchange experiences with fellow travelers from all over the world in our tree shaded patios and gardens. Join other guests at nearby cafes, restaurants, and night clubs until the early hours or prepare a meal in the outdoor BBQ area.
