    Nothing.

    Stay here. If you're visiting NOLA and want to be close to the French Qtr and Jackson Sq., etc., then you cannot beat The French Market Inn. Decatur is a main thoroughfare, but once inside, it's an oasis. The courtyard is wonderful and charming. The room as perfect - dark, quiet, cool - the perfect thing after a night of music, culture and fun. It's walkable to all the things you want in NOLA - and since Decatur is a main road, you can catch a taxi and easily get to other parts of the city without dealing with the crowds in the quarter. It sounds over the top, but this place is kind of perfect for all the things you want/need for your stay.

    In fairness, the property is historic, so the rooms are old looking. The carpet could be replaced to a newer one without harming the historic value. Also, we could not get the tv to work, but that was minor and never asked staff to help since it was not something we needed.

    The courtyard was beautiful, the staff were friendly and the location was perfect. We got to enjoy the river right across the street and the livelinesses of the quarter right around the corner (and on our street!). I would book again!

    Perfect location in the heart of the French Quarter. My room looked exactly like the photos - it was so cute! I loved the courtyard, which provided a nice calm oasis in the otherwise chaotic French Quarter. The staff were all very kind and helpful. I will definitely choose the French Market Inn the next time that I’m in NOLA.

    The reason it is not a 10 and 9: I think it is a safety issue due to the window structure of the building but I would like to have a window that could have been opened. The room I chose was with window and I had beautiful natural light, but it does not open. Now to be fair, unlike a previous bad experience, I never felt stuffed in the room, their air-conditioning system was great. But I just love fresh air.

    This hotel is situated in a street very close to famous French Quarter, that I walked everywhere but, it was also very quiet. Also, I felt quite secure as a female solo traveller. The personnel was great. Responsive and helpful. I stood in the petite queen room with a window, and it had all the things I needed. Room was beautifully decorated, the hotel had a lovely courtyard too. You could enjoy your book with a coffee there. Nice choice of soaps, I liked it. Confy bed. Highly recommended.

    I did not like that they do not tell you how much parking is going to be or that there is a 100 dollar deposit.

    I loved the location it was within walking distance to all major attractions and in a well lit area.

    There was no elevator to the 2nd floor in the wing that I was staying, not a big deal but would be a problem for people with large suitcases.

    Excellent WiFi (free)- had a 3 hour zoom meeting with video screen share- no issues. Fantastic location- a few blocks from Bourbon street, close but less people noise. There were a couple of really loud honking from the cruise boats on the river nearby in the night. Fantastic local brewery next door.

    There’s not much to complain about. The toilet was broken. Sometimes wouldn’t flush and you have to lift the lid and go that way. Would be nice to have breakfast but I’m sure the price wouldn’t be so reasonable

    We loved this hotel. Quiet, clean, comfortable and the most ideal location. Everything was a very short walk away. Even closer than the closed down hotel we used to stay
