Lions Inn

This B+B is about 1 mi. from Bourbon Street and in the nearer neighbouhood to Frenchmen Street. It´s in a quiet street and you can find always easy parking space for your car. It has a wonderful garden with a pool and a hot tub, relaxing chairs and towels for free to use. the rooms are nice and offer enough space. Internet is not available in the room, therefore you have to go to the pool or the kitchen. The breakfast buffet is in the main building and is self service. We felt safe at every day and nighttime.

Ed was a quiet constant presence making sure morning breakfast was delightful. he also was very accommodating regarding our luggage and our travel schedule. The pools and grounds very inviting and made our trip much more enjoyable, especially coming home to a tropical paradise and dipping my feet in the pool after many long miles walking the french quarter!

The Lions Inn is a charming B&B with a beautiful pool enclosed within a tropical patio. When we weren't eating out or going to hear music, we spent most of our time outside on the patio, where we had both breakfast and happy hour (on the house). The inn is well located near the nightlife on Frenchmen's Street and within walking distance of the French Market and Jackson Square. The innkeeper is organized and thoughtful.

We stayed in one of the upstairs rooms while at KBIS. Ed was friendly and helpful. Being from NY his softspoken approach through me off. Helped with all we needed. The patio is just lovely and the coffee was good. Would stay there again any time.

This really is a hidden gem. We have stayed here twice and had a great experience both times. Ed, the manager, is the sweetest man. I mentioned it was my partner's birthday and he had a cake waiting for us when we arrived. The rooms are spotless and the grounds are beautifully landscaped, plus the pool and hot tub are very clean and a nice retreat from the busy day. Each morning there is an extensive continental breakfast (coffee, yogurt, eggs, bagels etc.) and a wine and cheese social hour each day from 5-6. The place is quiet at night so even if you are a light sleeper there shouldn't be a problem. The Wi-Fi is free, it doesn't reach all the way to the back of the pool area but I just sat up front when I needed to use it. The neighborhood is a relatively quiet and safe artists community. Just 10 minutes walking to the Quarter but Lion's Inn provides free bikes if you need them. There are also several coffee shops, restaurants, and bars within a few minutes walking as well. Great location away from the crazy quarter but easy to get to. Be sure to check out Cake Cafe across the street, Bacchanal Wine in the Bywater and The Country Club (clothing optional resort) about a 15 minute walk down Chartres. We can't wait to come back and stay here again.

The room was immaculate, and very well set-up; the mattresses were a bit on the too-soft side, but that is a matter of taste. The proprietor was welcoming - and stayed up for a prearranged late arrival - but is somewhat aloof. We did think that the breakfast was very ordinary for a foodie city. Overall, a good experience.

We have spent 3 nights at Lions Inn B&B, everything was OK except a small problem in the toilets of the room, which has been rapidly solved by the owner. The wine and cheese at 5 PM was a nice moment, and for the breakfast we had everything we needed, and even more ! The location in Faubourg Marigny is very convenient, it takes about 20 minutes to reach the French Quarter and 10 minutes to Frenchmen Street where you can hear very good music. For visitors from Souchern Europe : be careful, after 8.30 PM you will not find any place for dinner in the surroundings ! We recommend this place.

What a lovely place to stay!! The host, Ed, is very sweet and helped me a lot. The place is beautiful, pool/yard, you feel like home. Totally coming back the next time I'm in NOLA. You're gonna love it!

If you are researching several different options to stay in the Big Easy, you can end your painstaking search (and research) now. The location is outstanding. Ed, the owner, is super nice. We stayed in two different rooms, and they were both excellent. The price was the lowest of every place we researched. Parking was free and no problem. The breakfast part of this "Bed and Breakfast" is lacking from other B&B's I've stayed in, but it in no way will deter me from not coming back here. It's basic continental breakfast (cereal/juice/coffee/bagels/toast/fruit, etc.) Nothing fancy, but for the price, I wasn't expecting a made-to-order hot breakfast. Wine and cheese hour is an awesome bonus -- if you can pull yourself away from the rest of New Orleans, that is! Backyard has a pool and hottub, which I never got around to using, unfortunately, but will next time I'm there. The Koi Pond is a nice relaxing place to read. I am a picky/grumpy traveler, and I had zero problems here. From the location, to the service, everything well exceeded my expectations. If you are leery because of the inexpensive rates, don't be. You will NOT go wrong by staying here.

Everything is very good: situation, rooms, service, garden... JP, Waterloo, Belgium.

Our stay in the Sun Room what delightful. And the staff was very helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay by all means. It is a lovely and quite place close to french quarter. Also good for relaxing. But it is Ed, the owner, who makes the place special. Thank you, Ed! If I come to Nola again, I'd stay in this oasis again.

A large group of us stayed at Lions Inn for a week at the end of March. Ed the innkeeper was very helpful and friendly. Every day Ed puts out a cracker and cheese plate for wine hour. It's very simple but a nice extra for a place with such reasonable pricing. Breakfast is an extended continental breakfast and is great too. The courtyard is beautiful and the place is very clean. Maids come daily. The location is a bit further but still walking distance to the quarter. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again. The price can't be beat!

Really nice outdoor gardens with palm trees,bamboo,gardens, pool, hot tub, fish pond, plenty of seating. Wine n cheese tray available between 5 n 6. Breakfast in morning in the main house. Rooms were nice for new orleans. I've stayed several times in the city. Mini fridge with rooms. Soft drinks available . Host was friendly.

What a very special palce to stay while in NOLA. Reccomended by a friend, I was not dissapointed. An easy walk to the quarter, but nicer, a few blocks from a few choice jazz bars and restaurants. Ed could not have been nicer and the dog Nippers even left my ankles alone. Highly recomended!

We didn't spend much time at the B&B, it was more of a home base for us, but I have absolutely no complaints and would be back again. The room was everything it needed to be, the back patio is beautiful and comfortable, the room was clean, and Ed was very nice and accommodating. Lion's Inn is at a great location because it is a short walk from the Quarter, especially Frenchman St. but it is far enough away that street parking is both free and readily available. It is also a mostly quiet street. Highly recommend the Lion's Inn for a fair priced, enjoyable NOLA getaway.

Great Location within walking distance to French Quarter. Nice continental breakfast. Will stay again when visiting New Orleans.

We had a great time in NOLA largely due to our stay with Ed at the Lion's Inn. The room we stayed in was more spacious than I anticipated and had an attached bath. Ed provided a very nice continental breakfast each morning as well as a wine and cheese get together in the evening, which was really nice for unwinding and getting to know other guests if you wanted. We found this a great "extra". The lovely garden in the back is a wonderful interlude from the city. Also, it's very conveniently located within four or five blocks of the French Quarter - an easy walk. Ed was also very helpful in providing local tips and anecdotes about NOLA and the area, including where to eat and things to see. He was also very helpful when our flight was cancelled due to a spring storm out East. He helped us get accomodations and let us stow our things while we passed time. All in all I highly recommend Lion's Inn to anyone wanting a NOLA vacation. You can't do better.

Really pleased with the inn and will be recommending it to friends that are visiting New Orleans this summer.

Great Place! Would recommend it and will stay again if I am in the area!

I stayed at the Lions Inn B&B for 4 nights and was thoroughly happy with my stay. The owner, Ed, was very friendly and accommodating. There was a nice continental breakfast every morning, and every afternoon there was a wine-and-cheese hour for those who were around. My room was clean and comfortable, and even though I had to share a bathroom with an adjoining room, it was well worth it for the price. I also enjoyed sitting out on the patio, taking a late-night hot tub and dip in the pool, and meeting the other visitors staying there. The location in the Marigny is great. There's a great little cafe down the block for breakfast/lunch if you want more than the continental breakfast, and it's about 7 min by foot from Frenchmen St. (and all the great music). The French Quarter is also a hop, skip, and a jump away. The walk to my conference at the Convention Center every day (ca. 30 min.) was lovely (and safe!) and allowed me to see a lot of the cool parts of New Orleans (including the French Market, which is also very close). There is a selection of bikes to choose from, though the pedals were falling off mine, and the chain fell off once too. (But at least you know no one will steal them!) I would highly recommend the Lions Inn for anyone looking for a pleasant stay in a great location. Plus there's a discount if you stay for 5+ nights.

A delightful bed and breakfast in one of the classic new orleans neighborhoods just outside of the French Quarter. Rooms were clean, and comfortable...not large. Our room had private a bathroom, which we would insist on when we stay there again. Breakfasts were simple but complete continental style (no hot rolls as mentioned in other reviews, but not a big deal). The back courtyard was delightful and it was fun meeting with other guests and chatting over the wine and cheese party held each evening at 5 PM. A lot of fun! Much preferred this experience to the 'usual' large hotel on or near Canal Street. Would definately go back! To experience New Orleans like a native.....do stay at the Lion's Inn. Parking very easy too!

Once again, a very pleasant stay at Lion's Inn!!!!! This trip, I discovered a lovely gym around the corner, at good daily rates! We were given bicycles to use to peruse the city. The hot tub was wonderful, as usual! My sister came to visit, and they even allowed her to use the hot tub, and served us wine and cheese as we soaked away the day's walking!!! This is my 3rd visit to Lion's Inn, and I'll definitely be back!!!! Thank U Ed and Floyd!!!!!! Anamaria

We had a wonderful stay at the Lions Inn! The grounds are beautiful and the accommodations are unique; perfect for an authentic Nawlin’s vacation! The owners were beyond accommodating and so very friendly :) As I often travel to New Orleans I will definitely be staying here again! It suites all budgets and can even accommodate for a single traveler! Easy walking distance to the best spots in town and best of all, you are surrounded by the history, architecture and essence that makes New Orleans one of the most magical destinations on earth! Thank you for letting us stay!

Super friendly staff, beautiful house and even more beautiful backyard where I enjoyed breakfast every morning, very clean. Continental breakfast included, don't expect anything fancy but it still does the trick and the coffee is good. Crossing Elysian Fields at night wasn't the very best experience as a lady traveling alone but the neighborhood itself is very friendly, borderline hipster-y in a good way. I would definitely go back, just not by myself.

We stayed in a cute little apartment they offered down the block. Didn't include the breakfast so cannot rate it. Had a small kitchen which let us make sandwiches and such, avoiding the hassle and expense of going out all the time. Will definitely be back.

I stayed in their tiniest room, but it was 2ce as large as it appeared in photos. The house is immaculate, and all renovations have been done by highly skilled artisans. The owners are not bean counters. Guests are welcome to linger over the continental breakfast and to position their computers around the cozy kitchen table any time of day. In a lovely historic neighborhood w many art galleries, coffee shops, and bars. Very close to a full-service grocery store w a grill. I really can't imagine a more perfect place to stay.

I've never written a review before now, but felt strongly that I must share this little secret B&B with others; my wife and I like to stay in small B&Bs or Inns. We do not like large, cold hotels. But trying to find a B&B in New Orleans is very challenging. There are thousands! After shortening my list of possible places to stay to around ten, I came across a review for the Lion's Inn in Fodor's travel guide. I threw out my list, and went with the Lions Inn. This Inn was wonderful! From the lovely Sun Room (our room) that faced out to the garden area. The garden, with giant plam trees, flowers, a large fish pond with water falls, swimming pool, and more. The abundant continental (plus) breakfast was a great start every morning. Last, but far from least was the owner and innkeeper Ed. Not just friendly, but KIND, caring about your very need. For those of us that are cost conscious. This B&B is inexpensive, what a value!!

Excellent location and great service

This B&B is a wonderful place to stay. It has a pool and hot tub, wine and cheese in the afternoon, and a friendly staff/owner who is available for questions and pleasant conversation. It is located down the street from a wonderful bakery, and a short walk to the center of the French Quarter. Be sure to request a quiet room if you need it, the Sun Room can be a bit noisy as it's right next to the kitchen.

My boyfriend and I had the perfect stay at the inn, and the owner was fantastic, and so helpful. The complimentary cheese and wine hour also allowed us to meet the other guests and socialise. The rooms are clean, and the beds are comfortable, and the location is great!

Pleasant, comfortable and convenient place to stay in the Marigny, at a good price, and with helpful staff.

Wonderful, highly recommend!

Great place in a great location. Love the Marney Area. Lions Inn is perfect little hideaway ...an Oasis

Loved everything about this place. they were very friendly, and it was very private and cozy. loved it

After an extensive online search, I decided on the Lions Inn mostly because of the back garden, which was beautiful, and the pool and hot tub. Even though it was too chilly to use them (for our comfort), we enjoyed sitting out back. We stayed in room 3 (king/twins), which was small but comfortable and the bath across the hall worked for us just fine. Breakfast was more than ample, with cereals, bagels & toast, fruit, hard boiled eggs and enough other self-serve items to find something for everyone. We were within walking distance of the Quarter and the streetcar line as well. We would definitely stay here again!

On my recent trip to NOLA I had booked in to stay for 2 nights only at Lions Inn, but as soon as I got there I felt happy, safe and at home. So I booked 2 extra nights, and canceled my other reservation! The breakfast is lovely, the rooms are perfect and there's 2 great coffee places nearby. Frenchman's close enough to stumble too, even when in a jet-lagged blur, but far enough to escape the noise pollution. The staff are lovely and relaxed. Definitely stay here.

The Lions Inn provided a lovely respite in a city with plenty of action. The proprietor, Floyd, was a real hoot keeping me in stitches with his delightful Southern humor. Both he and Ed answered all this first timers questions about New Orleans. Would definitely stay there again. Jean M.

Very clean and within walking distance to the French Quarter. The Wine Happy Hour and bicycles to use were an added bonus. Not sure it can be beat for the asking price. Even some locals use it when we were there. Better than taking the cab home after a long night out.

Come here to experience a quiet residential area not far from the French Quarter and Market, but removed enough to give the flavor of local life. If you enjoy leisurely chats with fellow travelers from around the world over breakfast in the ambiance of a nicely renovated century+ old home, this is the place for you. Floyd, the hospitable manager, treated us like family, and provided extras that made our week-long stay more than memorable.

The Lions Inn was clean and pretty. The garden and pool area are relaxing and beautiful. Breakfast was great with a good selection. The room price was very reasonable. I am glad that I stayed there.

We enjoyed the heck out of our stay at the Lion's Inn. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the backyard pool was so beautiful and relaxing after a hot day walking around the city. Ed and Floyd were gracious hosts. Be sure to ask the neighbors to get Nipper and Bubba (the sweet dogs) to sing "When the Saints Go Marching In."

I stayed in the single room at the Lion's Inn. It was small, but cozy and clean. Didn't take advantage of the wine and cheese but it takes place everyday from 5-6pm. The best asset this property has is the gorgeous pool and fish pond. Simply wonderful for a hot Louisiana day. Great value...would definitely stay here again

Our room was small but had everything we needed including its own bathroom. It opened onto the beautiful backyard with pool and hot tub. The pool and greenery were beautiful. The staff were helpful and friendly and our room was always made up nicely. The breakfast was continental, basically help yourself to cold cereal, bagels, fruit, juice and coffee. Its fine if you're not expecting a hot homemade breakfast. It was nice that they had bicycles you could borrow to ride around town. We were able to walk to and from Frenchman Street without any problems.

This B&B was such an amazing place to stay. It was like a home away from home from the free wine & cheese from 5:00-6:00 each day to the friendliness of the owners to the quaintness of the facility. The courtyard that separates each of the two housing facilities (which are old off the ground houses by the way) is beautiful. Pool, hot tub, lounging areas, perfection....not much more to ask for. My room was cleaned up each day too and I had my own bathroom :). I will be returning....

My friend and I completely enjoyed our stay here for 5 days! We were in room C which is HUGE and has its own entrance downstairs to the kitchen. The location is just about a 15 minute walk from everything French Quarter, and quiet enough at night for great sleep. There is also cafes and stores near the inn as well. And FREE street parking is a huge bonus. As well as the free wine and cheese hour at 5. The backyard is wonderfully landscaped and you really dont feel like you are near any other houses when you are. Breakfast is the basics but they will cook (or let you do it) if you want a more elaborate meal. I highly recommend this inn.

We have appracieted or stay at Lions Inn B&B. Rooms are cosy and garden is very very beautiful. This location is also quiet and others customers were very pleasant.

We had reservations at the Lions Inn for Southern Decadence but as there was a last minute cancelation at the condo in the French Quarter, our host allowed us to stay at the condo. Fantastic location! We rode bikes back and forth from the condo back to the B&B each day.

Charming and relaxed atmosphere. Staff were solicitous without being intrusive. It is in an ordinary New Orleans neighborhood which is a good antidote to the tourist destinations. A 10-minute walk to the trolley stop taking you to and from all the excitement. Other guests were mostly young Europeans which I only encountered over morning coffee by the pool. I look forward to staying there again.

We have stayed here before and as always absolutely loved it. Last time we stayed in Room C, with 2 bedrooms and that is still by far my favorite, but this year we were in the other house and it was very nice, but no A/C in the bathrooms- it was tolerable, but a bit warm. They have a great spread for breakfast but Cake Cafe almost next door if you feel like having the most delicious shrimp and grits ever. I love the Lions and will always stay there when in Nola.

Amenities were great, especially the use of bikes!! Loved the pool, very private, and the owners were helpful and friendly but definitely left us alone enough, too.

Very nice place to be in a very nice city. The hosts were is gentle, the cheese and wine time is a very good idea. The place is very close of the French quarter. It is a very good B&B. A french family.

Très bien situé à 2 pas de Frenchmen street. Cadre très sympathique qui permet les contacts avec les autres personnes.

My wife, our dog, and I spent 2 nights with Floyd and friends over a summer weekend. The stay was great, with friendly recommendations from Precious on where to get the best Po Boy (Verti Marte), and a tray from Floyd to deliver breakfast in bed to my wife ("Be nice to her... or hell, don't be nice, what do I care?"

It was my first time to New Orleans and I wanted to stay close to the French Quarter and my stay at the inn was terrific. What a great neighborhood to walk and get around. Very close to the area I wanted to be. I have no doubt that i would return for another stay.

The Lions Inn is very well located. It's a very nice place. Staying there was a true pleasure and it made our stay better. I strongly recommend that place.

What a lovely time we had staying at the Lions Inn! Floyd, Ed, and the rest of the staff were extremely hospitable and helpful. This was, by far, one of the best B&Bs we've stayed in...and we're stayed in many all over the US. The pool area was a special delight! We got great recommendations for where to eat and shop. Parking on the street was ample. Of course, the French Quarter is so close, we never moved our car all week! We will definitely be going back to the Lions Inn. Thanks, all!

This was my second stay at this gem of a place and it was just perfect! The Lions Inn is located in the best neighborhood of New Orleans, you are a short walk to the French Quarter and can still explore this funky little neighborhood. Floyd and Ed are very accommodating and the property is just so quaint and beautiful! I will be back!!

Spent an enjoyable weekend at Lions Inn. Very convenient location to French Quarter. Walked everywhere. Only about 15 minutes to Jackson Square. Even though two ladies, felt safe walking in the area. Learning curve came about when the temperatures soared to upper 90's and the bathroom we were accessing had no air conditioning. Will know to ask next time. Minor inconvenience. Ambiance was great. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Our first trip to NOLA and it was great. The Lions Inn was an amazing little bed and breakfast with super friendly staff and guests. I would highly recommend it and will definitely stay there again should I go back to NOLA.

This was the second time that we've stayed at the Lion's Inn and it was just as good as the first. Great staff, clean (and cute) rooms, and an awesome neighborhood location. And the pool courtyard is simply beautiful.

Very friendly, close to the action of N.O., but quiet and charming.

Mew management has come in to the Lions Inn. Way different than the previous manager.. For a place that we have been there many times, were are very disappointed by the fact that we were told to wear towels all the time. For a clothing optional place, this was not an option we were wanting to hear. We were in a room that we had not stayed in before. We arrived early, and swam, and hours later, nobody ever came out to tell us the room was ready. We had to go inside and check, the we were just handed a key.No "hello" no "welcome and let me show you to your room. The first night I had to go and wake the new manager and get ROACH spray. He made us feel like we were so bothersome. We got a spray can with 3 squirts in it. Then after we used it up and went back to bed, 3 m ore ROACHES were climbing up the armoir from the window by the A/C unit. We got Ritz crackers on a paper plate and some hunks of cheddar cheese at 5 PM. There were 4 of us sitting by the pool nude at the opposite end from where the cheese was p[laced. We asked for the manager to bring the cheese and Ritz to the table at our end, and we got attitude and he put the cheese down and walked away.. We, and some fellow guests there, were having small confrontations with the new guy that is running the place.. He never turned on the light inside of the swimming pool. It was like so dark out on the pool and patio area that were were afraid to walk around at the dark of night and had to sit at a table just outside of a guests room.. It is a shame that a place we like so much has changed in a way we and some other guests find negative. It is a beautiful place to swim at. But the hospitality that it has been known for for years is gone. We have found another gay friendly and fun and beautiful place to say.

The location of the B&B was just fine. Although it was not officially in the French Quarter, it was only a short walk, and we felt safe. The category B&B would lead one to expect some sort of special breakfast, but that was not the case. We had cold cereal and toasted bagels, self-service. There were a couple of good eating places within a block; the more famous and exotic venues were in the Quarter. Our room was okay, but not great, The complimentary wine happy hour was nice and the pool and gardens were lush. Beware the hot tub ... It felt good at the time, but I suffered burns from the excessive chlorine that are still healing, and it has been 2 week ... not pleasant. I would probably seek out another accommodation on a future visit to the city.

My girlfriend and I have stayed at the Lions Inn for the past 6 years, once or twice a year. We love the feel of the place, the neighborhood in which it is located, and the interesting people we cross paths with while enjoying breakfast or wine & cheese hour (provided by the Inn). The rooms are very clean and Precious is always quick and dependable to have clean warm towels available.

Stayed in room C, which had its own bathroom and 2 queen beds. Bigger than we expected! lovely courtyard and swimming pool, but make sure to use some mosquito spray when you go out there. Breakfast was nice - muffins, cereal, etc,.. 10 minit walk to frenchmen street for great music and atmosphere. Another 10 minits to the east end of bourbon street. Only negative was the super-steep staircase up to our room, so if you have knee or back problems consider a room on the ground floor.

We had a nice time at the Lion's Inn B&B. It was a little further away from most of the tourist attractions. It was nice to be able to take bikes which cut down on the walking. The trolley is close by also, but it can be 15-30 min between each trolley. The room was nice, would have liked a clock of some kind in the room, but it was clean and the bed was made up each day. The pool was great to have in the NOLA heat along with Hot Tub. Breakfast was a little dissappointing with only bagels, bread, yogurt, fruit and 2 cereals to choose from each day. By the time we got into the central part of NOLA we were already hungry. I would reccommend this B&B if you don't mind walking or biking 20 min or so to get to things, otherwise, you might want to stay closer to the attractions.

What a wonderful stay in New Orleans. This B & B has everything from hot tub to an awesome swimming pool. The wine and cheese happy hour everyday is very nice added touch. Lots of breakfast items to choose from in the morning with some nice strong coffee to get you on your way to a full day of sightseeing. The heart of the French Quarter is about a 15 to 20 minute walk, but you get to see lots of different things along the way that you don't realize you've walked that length of time. Owner and manager are very personable as well as the rest of the staff. Rooms are nice and clean.

+ Very kind and helpful staff + Nice family-like atmosphere + Quite neighborhood + Free wine, cheese & cracker hour + Free bike rental with lockers + Pool – A little bit far from the French quarter when walking – take a bike instead

Our stay was awesome! This was a great value, quiet, beautiful, and a perfect distance from the French quarter.

The Lions Inn was a wonderful respite from the cacophony of the French Quarter. but still close enough for enjoying its revelry. Simply tasteful rooms, lush patio with pool and hot tub, and beautiful garden with pond await you. Service was attentive without being intrusive. And the value could not be beat! I would absolutely book a return stay!

Really enjoyed our stay at the Lions' Inn. The hospitality was laid back, but fantastic- all staff really helpful. The wine our and communal breakfast were great, and made met people from all over the world. Will definitely want to stay here again.

Nice place to stay for decent price. Very laid back. Pleasant courtyard with pool. Great location in the Marigny. I knew about this place because I used to live on this block. They provide bicycles to explore the neighborhood with, much better than walking. Rooms have character. Clean, quiet. Would recommend. I didn't have any of the breakfast so I can't review that. Why waste stomach space on continental hotel breakfast when you can have shrimp poboys and fried chicken?

Floyd is a national treasure! The stories he could tell...and does ...will make you late for anything you have planned because they are so interesting. But what are you doing planning in New Orleans? Enjoy the unexpected like the Aquatic center down the street that has gazillions of frogs croaking into the night and the Sculpture studio that has all those crazy sculptures filling up a huge yard. And then there is Frenchman street nearby and lots of great places to eat.

We were very satified with our stay! It was absolutely wonderful! Will def recommend to others and would stay there again!

We stayed for the weekend, traveling with our dogs for the first time. They were welcomed with open arms by Floyd,Nipper and Bubba. We were all four made to feel at home. We will be returning to the Lions Inn.

very pleasant place to stay & a excellent value. so nice to talk with other guests as well. recommend to all. will come back again. david & lisa

Charming B&B in wonderful New Orleans! Our host Floyd a true southern gentlemen!

Feels like coming home after a long day at the festival. Quiet and cozy!

We spent 4 days here in late april/early may for the NCAA basketball tourney--A great restaurant less than one block away, only 5 minute walk to jazz clubs on French man street; less than 10 minute walk to end of riverfront trolly line in French Quarter

We visited New Orleans for the NCAA Final 4 and thoroughly enjoyed Lion's Inn. The location was great, being just outside the chaos of the French Quarter. The walk into the Quarter was very quaint and easy. Floyd was very gracious to mail our phone charger to us as well.

What a great place to come home to after spending a day touring, shopping or just being out all night long! Quiet, hidden oasis where you least expect it to be! Within walking distance to everything; shops, restaurant and Bourbon Street! Floyd is a great host and is always making sure his guests are happy! I miss it already!

My girlfriend and I went down to NOLA for spring break and Lions Inn was the perfect place for us. They are a few blocks outside the quarter, but have free bikes for you to use if you get sick of walking back and forth. Frenchman street is only 4 blocks away and that is where we found that we would end each evening because of the live jazz and the neighborhood between lions inn and Frenchman street was very safe. We stayed in room 4 (king size bed and own bathroom) and the room was great! A/C was much appreciated after walking all day in the hot sun. The bathroom was across the hall, which was fine for us. The king size bed was actually two twins put together and there was a little crease in the middle of the bed, but we barely noticed. However we will get a queen next time. Our typical day looked like: wake up at 8, get breakfast and mingle with the other guests, head out by 10, do whatever activity, be back by 5 for wine and cheese hour and jump in the very refreshing pool, then head out for dinner and late night good times. Floyd is VERY nice and will make sure everything is good on their end. When we head back to NOLA, we will stay at lions in. :)

We really enjoyed our stay at Lions Inn for several reasons. Our charming host, Floyd, was thoughtful and considerate and I greatly enjoyed the conversations over breakfast. Our dog was also made to feel welcome, which meant quite a bit to us. The Inn is lovely, cozy, safe and quiet, located in a charming neighborhood. You wouldn't know that you are a stone's throw away from the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter, yet you are close enough to walk there if you decide to. However, we enjoyed just staying in the vicinity of the inn, walking about the neighborhood, eating and buying groceries at a neighborhood grocery/restaurant and enjoying the beautiful architecture close at hand. And the garden/pool area out back is outstanding - one has several options of quiet spots to sit and enjoy the outdoors, or swim in the pool if desired. The wine and cheese hour in the evenings was an extra special touch! We hope to go back someday and would wholeheartedly recommend Lions Inn to anyone wanting a special memorable place to stay when in New Orleans.

If you want to experience New Orleans beyond the French Quarters, I recommend staying at the Lion's Inn. My partner and I have stayed there twice and we enjoyed it both times. If you don't mind a 15 minute walk to Bourbon, staying in Marigny is an experience. Plus, you pass Frenchman street on the way to the FQ; there's always something going on there. During the day, you can take the bikes and explore more of Nola. Floyd makes sure that your stay is an enjoyable one. I can't recommend this B&B enough.

I will start with the good. The location is prime if you want to be in the pulse of the coolest area in the city. Almost directly across from one of the greatest breakfast spots in town and with a nice continental breakfast of their own including cereal's hard boiled eggs, some fruits, coffee, juice, tea.....The Patio is LOVELY, amazing really that you can get so much space right in the heart of the city, they are very lucky. But. The pool is not heated which means that there is no year round swimming, it may be warmer here than lots of places are in February but not it's not that warm. The rooms are pretty tiny and while they do have some antiques and are over-all "nice" I wouldn't say they are fancy or indulgent in any way, just a nice clean place to sleep. And the bed. Oh, the bed was not good, not comfortable at all. I need a comfy bed, period. The owners were polite but not at all friendly, it definitely felt like we were intruding on their private party.....not sure how that works, it was clear that as a small family of three with a little one we were not their normal guests. Fair enough. In short I would say that while it is certainly a fine option for some it is not the perfect option for us, I require a little more luxury and again, a comfy bed but beyond that I can see this as a great place to stay if you don't plan on sleeping much and do plan on being here in the warmer months when you can take advantage of the killer pool/patio area :)

We went to go visit during Mardi Gras and it was a short 10 minute walk to "the madness" of Bourban St and the French Quarter. The inn was fantastically clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Their place was so cute and there was a pool, hot tub and small pond. It was just overall a cute and pleasant stay. I will be staying there next time I visit New Orleans. You save some money by staying a little outside but we felt very safe walking at night and I still consider it close!

Floyd, Ed and Tai, their friends and acquaintances made my first visit to New Orleans welcoming and wonderful. Lions Inn has a great location in my opinion and free use of bicycles made tooling around easy and adventuresome. Beautiful tropically accented pool and hot tub area reminded me of Hawaii. Thanks men for making my visit memorable. Tom Dredge

Lions Inn together with New Orleans will always stay in my heart! The inn is so beautiful and quite and Floyd and Ed are so attentive to their guests. For me it was like staying in a house of my very dear and long know beautiful friends! Hoping so much to come back and have again 5 o'clock Lions Inn glass of wine. Thank you!

I particularly appreciated being able to borrow bikes so we could ride around town, and the garden area was very beautiful and relaxing. A very comfortable and relaxed place to stay in a cute neighborhood. The bed was really comfortable, and the shower was great. The only downside was that the room was a bit stuff...but it happened to be cold at night so we couldn't leave the windows open. Otherwise a great place with kind hosts.

We got there at night so it was a little hard to find. I was greeted by a sweet lady named Precious who was more than helpful. I was skeptical since I had not stayed in too many bed and breakfast. There was people staying from all over the world there.But to my suprise, It was much better than staying in any of new orleans inflated prices hotels. Hot water was sometimes scarce for two showers..but not bad. The pool area was really nice. (beware it is clothing optional) I experienced New Orleans from a different perspective and found that there is more to New Orleans than bourbon street. Everything about it was a nice suprise! Will definitely be a return guest.

Our gracious host Floyd Lamb was very helpful recommending local restaurants and entertainment. The wine and cheese at 5pm was a great way to meet other guests and locals. Overall a wonderful experience and would highly recommend the Lions Inn to all my friends.

we really enjoyed staying at the Lions Inn. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. Location is great for the Krewe du Vieux parade and just a few short blocks to Frenchman street. The courtyard is beautiful with the pool , coy pond and hot tub. and for an added bonus they have a wine and cheese hour every afternoon. will certainly come back on our next trip to NOLA

Loved the location, loved the dogs, loved the pool, loved the folks. Nice shower, & nice small kitchen area. Only think I'd add would be a small table. We had the room with an outdoor entrance, which was very nice and private. Highly recommended.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The place is not far from the French Quarter and you can borrow some bikes

Nice, clean comfortable room. Bathroom very spacious. Small TV, however, we were hardly ever in room, basically jsut lulled us to sleep. Remote didn't work properly. Also, ceiling fan didn't work but room has AC. Steep stairs to make up to the room which you should make sure you are able to climb. Price was fair I thought. However, it is not as close to the most visited part of French Quarter as seems advertised. Cab to that area only about $10 to most destinations. Recommend taking taxi at least as far as the open French Market as the area near house doesn't seem a great place to walk at night. Back yard pool area is very nice and drinks are provided in a fridge. They do have a small breakfast provided and a wine in evening. We are not breakfast people as we come in late, sleep late and go out and have lunch. Overall, I would stay here again especially if I couldn't find something similiar in price closer to the quarters or Casino.

Conveniently located, this B&B allows you not to pay for parking vehicule. I enjoyed the stay with my family. The owner is very kind. I didn't enjoy summer facilities but it is definitively a good address to stay.

Floyd and Ed, the owners of the B&B were very friendly and helpful. Nice rooms, clean. Plenty of food for the continental style breakfast. Would definitely stay there again.

Spent 3 nights in room C in the main house -- up a narrow stairway from the street, then down a narrow winding hall, but a large room awaits at the end. Direct access to the kitchen and pool areas via another steep stairway actually in the room. Great value; straight-forward simple breakfasts (fruit, toast, bagels, cereal and good coffee). Wine and cheese hour. Wide range of guests seeking a value stay. About 5 blocks to the beginning of the French Quarter, so bring your walking shoes. Free parking on the street.

The owners/ managers were extremely helpful. they went above and beyond the call to be helpful. However, my fiance could never finish a shower without the hot water running out. The free Wi-Fi was down and did not start to work until the day before we left, after I hauled my lap top on the plane for nothing. Super nice people, but I won't stay there again on my next trip back to New Orleans. I like a few more amenities, like adequate hot water and Wi-Fi which works. I must admit the location is ideal: safe neighborhood and close to the French Quarter, but far enough away to be quiet.

Very nice B&B ideally located on a quiet street in the Marigny district, just a couple blocks from Frenchman street. The owner is very nice and accommodating, and the rooms are comfortable and well maintained. And there's a hot tub. The breakfast is a bit lacking but I didn't mind, got a chance to grab something at the very nice cafe just down the street. !

Wonderful accommodations. Very good value. The Inn Keeper was most charming and helpful with dining recommendations.

When we were left off by the taxi, I thought "oh my" and not in a good sense. If it were not for the "Lions" insignia on the residential door, I would have sworn that the cabby had made a mistake. We were escorted in through that door and led to "our room." Once again I thought "oh my" only this time it was in a good way. The Sun Room was great with a direct entry to the pool and courtyard. Good location and a good time. In closing there was no one there that was nearly as grumpy as I am.

Nice cozy rooms, great hospitality, breakfast included, cereal , coffee, breads, fruit, yogurt, walking distance to everything, clothing optional sundeck and pool, not heated, but walking distance to The Country Club with great heated pool.

This was was our first stay in New Orleans, when we're coming back, we will definitely stay at the Lions Inn again. We arrived on Friday morning after driving all night. The owner let us check in without extra charge, although check-in was officially not until 3pm. The rooms were not big, but clean and they had a very nice atmosphere. The garden (with pool and hot tub) is lovely. When we were sitting there in the evening the owner brought us wine and cheese (for free). The location is perfect, the inn itself is located on a quiet street, but it is situated very near many good restaurants and Frenchman street where all the nicest bars are. The French quarter is only a short walk away and complimentary bikes are available for destinations that are a bit further away.

great value and a fun neighborhood, easy walk to the French Quarter, felt safe in the area, we were able to park on the street very close to Lions Inn for free. Parking in the French Quarter hotels is $30 a day.

Great property in a great neighborhood with extremely helpful and friendly staff. Can't wait to come back

Loved the homey feeling. Beautiful surroundings. Would stay there again but would not pick the same room, it was next to the dining room, very loud in the morning, it was in the main house. Next time will stay in other rooms. But other than that it was great stay, friednly, clean, great value.

We had a wonderful stay at the Lions Inn. The courtyard was beautiful and was a great place to relax. The inn is located close enough to the French Quarter that we were able to walk everywhere, and never had to move our car!

The room was nicely furnished and convenient to the backyard pond and pool. While everything appeared clean, it was a bit shabby looking in places. The location was excellent, walking distance to the French Quarter, yet without the noise. The breakfast was so-so. While we enjoyed our stay, I would caution people who want a non-smoking environment, that this could be a problem as guests seem to congregate in the backyard to smoke. The owner has 2 dogs which we enjoyed but one of the dogs barking did keep me awake.

Decor is beautiful, yet warm and comfortable. Breakfast is continental plus and satisfying. The backyard is a gorgeous tropical like garden, containing a large pool, hot tub and lily pond. Makes you feel like you are in the tropics. 5 to 6PM, wine, cheese and crackers are served in the garden, which gives you and opportunity to meet and converse with the other visitors. Floyd makes you feel like familly and his manager Ed is very nice also. They went out of their way to be helpful and accommodating to our needs. We really hated leaving this bed and breakfast and recommend this B&B to everyone. If you have any questions, would be happy to reply. Ilene & Walt Jacobus

My husband and I stayed at the Lion's Inn recently for our anniversay. We had a great stay! The room was charming and clean with beautiful stained glass windows. There is a nice pool and hot tub and a lovely koi pond in the courtyard. The breakfast was fresh fruit and bagels, simple but nice. They had bikes to use for free and we rode them all over New Orleans for three days. It was such a great way to see the city, without having to pay a bunch of taxis a lot of money. We loved the neighborhood and were only about 3 blocks from Frenchman street, where all the amazing jazz clubs are. We'll definitely stay at the Lion's Inn again!

TEMPURPEDIC BED in ROOM 4! That's all you need to know!

my room was great, the pool area was just fabulous, and the free bicycles enabled me to see way more of New Orleans than I could have on foot. Floyd and Ed were unobtrusive but always there to help, answer questions and generally make sure their guests were happy and comfortable. Staying at the Lions Inn was a total pleasure and I will revisit from Ireland again.

Very close to the french quarter, nice people, nice swimming pool but bring your mosquito spray!

The service is really helpful and accomodating and it's in a great nieghborhood. It's got a beautiful little garden and pool.

Our stay at Lions Inn was wonderful. The rooms were well appointed with classic looks, and the pool and surrounding garden made the courtyard seem like a tropical paradise. The innkeeper Floyd, was a gracious host, and made us feel right at home. I highly recommend Lions Inn to anyone staying in The Big Easy...

Their pool is covered in shade and makes for a nice afternoon hang out in the hot weather. Staff is very friendly, and rooms are clean with great air conditioning. A great value for the cost, and in a wonderful neighborhood.

We had a wonderful time in New Orleans. This B/B is in an awesome location and the owners are very personable and love to share information about New Orleans. The neighborhood is charming and I felt very safe, even though we were walking distance from the heart of the city! The breakfast options were dismal for children, but luckily there is a great bakery right across the street. I definitely plan to stay here again!

Floyd and company were both gracious and fun. This was my ninth stay at the Lions Inn and the sunroom by the pool was perfect. Sharing time over morning coffee or afternoon wine and cheese by the pool with guests from Canada, France and Mexico was enchanting. I'll be back for an all-too-short stay in October.

Great to meet folks from around the world at wine and cheese hour. Gorgeous setting, beautiful gardens and patio, the weather was hot and the pool was refreshing. Room was cozy, cool, and attractive. Will be coming back on our next trip to New Orleans.

I enjoyed my stay at the Lion's Inn. It is located in an interesting, eclectic neighborhood outside the Quarter and its nice to get to know other, less hectic parts of the city. The room was clean and the owner was friendly and very knowledgeable about New Orleans. I will definately stay there again.

ravissant jardin, piscine superbe, un havre de paix à new-orleans, cheese and wine très sympathique à 17 h permettant des rencontres très agréables avec les autres hôtes. Floyd est charmant et très disponible. nous recomanderons cet endroit. philippe et marie abadie- Tarbes, France

Sweet little b&b close to frenchmen street. it's not the hilton but perfect for travellers on a budget.

My wife and I stayed at the Lion's Inn B&B for about a week. We enjoyed the pool, jacuzzi, bikes, breakfast, wifi, and meeting wonderful people :)

We throughly enjoyed our time at the Lions Inn. The Innkeeper was just such a warm and friendly fellow and I enjoyed his wonderful spirit and energy. The grounds are beautiful and the pool was great as was the pond and gardens. We had a wonderful room with a private bath and full kitchen!! We look forward to returning again and again! Thank you Floyd and Ed for your hospitality. Berlena and Wendy

The Lions Inn is a perfect place for a get-away-great location, incredible rooms that are clean and comfortable, and hospitality that is just beyond belief. The gardens and pool are beautiful and so very relaxing in a city that is very, very busy. Our stay was like being with valued old friends. We can not wait until we can arrange for another visit and stay with Floyd at Lions Inn.

Stayed for a friends weekend wedding. Close to French Quarter, great pool! Ed and Floyd were very helpful for our stay.

Our stay was very nice. Love the grounds, the pool and the people. Just a few things that could be improved... starting with the water pressure in the shower, which was barely above a trickle in our shared bath. And to pick nits, better coffee in the AM would be nice, especially since New Orleans is known for it's smooth chickory coffee. Overall - I would stay at the Lion's again for sure.

Floyd is an outstanding host, and we always have a great time at the Lions Inn in New Orleans. The pool and garden make it so difficult to leave the premises, and in fact, much of our time is spent lounging poolside. The rooms are well-kept and comfortable, and Room #1 in particular opens up directly to the pool. It's paradise.

This is a great find: a gem of an inn. It is truly like a resort, just on a small scale. The location is great and the bicycles the icing on the cake.

This is a beautiful B & B, and the host was very conscientious about making sure our needs were met. There are a lot of neighbors coming and going in the pool/kitchen area and one of them was sunbathing in the buff by the pool when we came back from lunch. He got dressed as soon as he knew he was in mixed company, but my seventeen year old daughter and I had already seen him by that time. I guess my advice would be not to bring kids if you stay here. Otherwise, it was a very nice place.

We had a great time at the Lions Inn. Happy hour from 5pm gets all the guests together and we met some wonderful people from all over the world and made lifetime friends. Our hosts Floyd and Ed were so friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend the Lions Inn in its beautiful tropical surrounds and so close to the French Quarter.

Place was great stayed one night. Getting married in November and sending my family to stay there.

This is a very homey B&B a few blocks east of the French Quarter. The room rates are great, especially considering the place has a pool, a hot tub and a wine-and-cheese hour every day at 5 p.m. There are also a few great restaurants a block or two away.

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Lions Inn. The pool was a must and is in a beautiful secluded back yard setting. The hospitality was great and wine and cheese hour was an added plus. The feature we loved most was they furnished bicycles to use. We rode all over, locking them to poles when we stopped to do things. Much cheaper than cabs and we found it safe riding back to the B&B at nite. Lions Inn is just the right distance from the French Quarter with many little places to eat close by. We will stay with them again.

I found this to be a wonderful place to stay in New Orleans, especially since there was a swimming pool on site.

The atmosphere was very relaxing and homey with a great pool and garden to relax in.

This was a great place to stay and on all future trips to NOLA I will stay there again.

A very quaint, and nice facility. I didn't think the staff was overly friendly. But I only stayed one night. I was a little suspect of the neighborhood.

What a wonderful place to stay! It's charming, quiet, comfortable, with a very hospitable host (Ed). The garden, pond, swimming pool and hot tub are all lovely. The neighborhood is fun and interesting - you can walk down the street and eat well and hear great music, plus see funky, pretty, and interesting houses. For my husband and me one of the best things was the free bikes - we rode all over the city, and that was a highlight of our trip. We would (and will) stay at the Lions Inn again in a minute.

Close to the French Quarter and safe. Perfectly adequate for my needs.

Can't beat the location, bike usage, Floyd is very accommodating. The back area is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. We did not take advantage of breakfast nor the wine & cheese hour. This place makes for a very pleasant stay in New Orleans.

what a fun place to stay. Floyd made us feel very welcome and was very kind to us. The other guest were wonderful and the atmosphere in the coutyard was very relaxing, just what you need after a day at Jazz Fest. We hope to stya here again.

Our visit to the Lions Inn BnB was terrific. Floyd was quite the host and most enjoyable to talk with -- as well as his staff, Ed, Miquel, etc. Hope to be visiting again next year!

Being there the second time we felt as coming home! Floyd is a wonderful host, including his humor and his hospitality. The location is just near midtown - you can walk or bike to most of New Orleans attractions. You can take a rest in the wonderful tropical garden, swimming in the pool and the 5-o'clock-wine-time every day is a relaxing meeting in coming together with other guest.

Great setting with pleasant atmosphere. Good neighborhood! I choose the small room upstairs...could use a few more hooks and table to hang belongings and clothes. Good host!

A wonderful garden with a lot of (for me as norwegian) exotic trees and fowers. Nice swimming-pool. Few rooms and guests, which made it easy to learn the others to know. Also the wine-hour (free !) in the afternooen was great. Walking distance to French quarter !

A great place to stay ... a great host! Just far enough to be out of the chaos of the French Quarter, but close enough to enjoy the chaos of the French Quarter.

The breakfast was good. Being able to borrow a bike was super! Wine and cheese at 5PM, what a great way to get to know the other guests! I would like to come again. -Glenn Smith

Lion's Inn was recommended to us by a friend for our recent trip to NOLA. We were looking for something quiet but still within walking distance of the Quarter. We are so grateful for the recommendation as we loved our stay. Floyd is very friendly and personable as is his staff. He made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived until our vacation sadly ended 5 days later. The rooms are VERY clean and well appointed. We were in the guest house in a room with a private bath and enjoyed quiet peaceful nights. The courtyard is gorgeous, the pool was refreshing and the hot tub was a great escape after a long day in the Quarter. Marigny is a bit removed from the action (about a 15 minute walk to the Quarter) but still has a lot to offer in the way of nightlife, cafe's, and shops. Each morning, the B&B offered breakfast and then a nice social wine/cheese hour in the afternoon. We can't wait to return and have recommended Lion's Inn to all of our friends.

The location was great -- we were right within walking distance to all the action and only took a cab once our entire stay. The pillows were soft, the air conditioning was plentiful (and easily adjustable!), and the rooms were clean and lovely.

This is a great location to have walking access to what I like in N.O. Frenchman street, the Quarter, the Trolley, it's all right there. I didn't use a bike, but that's a nice perk! The pool and back yard are a quiet respite after a long day wandering around. The room was clean, quiet and the hosts were helpful. I'll go back!

My husband and I spent a wonderful 4 day vacation at the Lions Inn. We were so happy with the expierence. The staff, Ed, Floyd and espically Bubba and Nipper were so very friendly and helpful in recommending places to see and eat. The location was perfect. It was within walking distance to the heart of the French Quarter and the street car. We truely enjoyed using the bikes that were offered and were able to see and do everything that we wanted. We will definetly stay here the next time that we are visiting New Orleans.

Staying at the Lion's In was a wonderful experience! We had room "C", which is a large room w/ 2 double beds. The bathroom was also large.The room/bathroom was clean and pristine! The garden area is beautiful! So full of palm trees, plant life, flowers! There even is a gorgeous Japenese goldfish pond, and a little bench to sit and think! The pool was lovely! Very clean! We also spent much time in the Jacuzzi. Perfectly clean and well kept. The innkeeper/owner, Floyd, is wonderful! He's an older gentleman, who has a story for every occasion. He was also extremely funny!! He even served us wine, cheese, crackers and dips.....while We were in the jacuzzi!! My only wish, is that the Inn be a closer walk to the main quarter, but, it is what it is, and besides, with all the food we ate, we needed the walk! Floyd also has 2 smallish dogs, who are very friendly. The Inn is very GLBT friendly! I could go on, but, I'll sum it up by saying, I'd most definitely recommend Lion's Inn to anyone, and will definitely be staying there on my next trip!!! Anamaria Y.

My son and I stayed at the Lion's Inn for five nights in March and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. While our room was small and shared a bath with one other room, it worked out fine for us and was well worth the reasonable cost. Our hosts were very kind and helpful and the pool and grounds were lovely. Being just a few block from Frenchmen Street, the location was great. We couldn't have asked for a better place.

Lovely room, quiet garden, discussions with other guests around wine and cheese or breakfast, attentive service. Exactly what I needed.

What a gem of a place. Such a hospitable owner, and the nightly wine and cheese by the garden was a treat. Loved chatting with the various guests. The location is perfect -- short walk to the Quarter. Free bikes a major plus. We'll be back!

My friend and I enjoyed the location, the room, and the company. Easy healthy walk to the French Quarter. The pool (in a lovely tropical landscape) was too cold for swimming in March, but we enjoyed sitting around in the sun (clothing optional). The wine hour was very sociable. Don't expect a hot breakfast -- but cereal and fruit is fine since you will overeat during the rest of your time in NOLA!

Great rooms, service, pool and courtyard! Very nice, personable and helpful host. 5-10 minute walk from the quarter, but there's a lot of music and other happenings in the same neighborhood as the B & B.

i came for the 1st time to New Orléans and THE Lions inn was à great succes. The owner was realy frendly and the place awesome!!!!! THE breakfast was really good. the street where the Lions inn is situated close to the French quarter but real quiet in the evening. I had a lovely time. S.Schuiveling , Holland.

It was great stay overall. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable. It was in a great location.

This was my second stay at the Lions Inn. I find the owner and staff friendly and accommodating. The rooms are not huge but are comfortable and inviting. The bathrooms are not perfect but are big enough and are clean. The breakfast is do it yourself, not fancy, I usually go across the street to the cafe.
