Great old place. Rooms are small with high ceilings. Bathroom cramped. But you walk down the back stairs into the little bar, 24/7 cocktails, on the right and their own cafe-and-beignets place on the left. Pop straight out the door on Decatur, look right; there's Cafe Du Monde, half a block away. Look directly across the street at the French Market. Down the street a couple blocks to the right is Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville.
No way we're forgetting N'Awlins.
