Fleur de LIS Mansion

Just have to say that this place is misrepresented. There's no way it's the number one bed and breakfast in New Orleans or is a five star diamond or whatever it is being promoted as. it's a dumpy old building under a highway bridge. It's okay for the money, which is pretty cheap but they cut corners a lot and only clean the room when you leave. i don't buy their "green" excuse. it's one thing not to wash the towels, another to blow off making the bed. Like i said, cutting corners. it's far from all the main sights so you spend a lot on uber. What i saved on the room i spent on uber. Never saw a person here the entire time and had to self check in with a keypad. It felt cold and run down. It's okay for a budget stay but I just had to warn you that its description and rating is very misleading.

The first day of our stay seemed like this is a great place. It felt funky and felt fun and interesting. The longer we stayed, the easier it was to see its shortcomings. There’s no central gathering place in the main house. There’s a room in the back that did not feel terribly clean or welcoming. The backyard space had a hot tub but the entire space was shadowed underneath a freeway. The outdoor furniture was not clean, so it was not a place you wanted to sit outside. Not all rhe burners on the barbecues worked. But our biggest problem is that we are a large group and like to cook together as a large group. There was not enough pots and pans to make a meal for a larger group. If I was a New Orleans, overnight, this seems like a great place. However, if you have a larger group taking over the whole house, there must be other places that are more with the money.
