Room was just the right size.... everything within easy reach. I appreciate the sound control plexi on the windows facing the street. Nice touch. Pillows were firm until I took the cases off. Very clean room. Very attentive and efficient staff. I'll be back.

Everything was great. I made a few adjustments to the shower head leak and toilet running when we arrived, and the wall ac unit had the condensate pump running constantly, but I sleep to white nose and never complained. We had a wonderful experience and the please and staff are amazing. House keeping was nice. Courtyards are always busy with foot traffic and staff. Old and beautiful.

We were afraid this place was too good to be true. Great reviews, wonderful location, and a fair price?!? Holy moly! French Market Inn was everything we wanted and more. 100% legit, comfortable beds, handy refrigerator, superior water pressure, safe location, and supremely located. Don’t snooze on this one. Book now! …full disclosure, I have been in the hotel biz for over 30 years. This is my personal and professional opinion!

Good Service, Wonderful Staff, Good location, but TERRIBLE wifi. French Market Inn needs to install good WIFI extender and/or modem/routers for the guest!! I had to use my data using hotspot, as the hotel's wifi is terrible, weak, and slow, sometimes no internet. I cannot believe that any decent hotel neglect the essential part of the service.

I wish we had explicitly been told there is designated street parking in front of the building to use while you check in, but the staff was extremely helpful in getting the car registered in the lot quickly.

This is a great location - easily walkable to almost anywhere; across street from river and steamboat tours. We were upgraded to a suite, which gave us a seating area with another Tv, and a small table. Unfortunately the tv never worked. We were given batteries to swap out of remote which allowed us to turn it in but the. We could never turn it back off. Luckily we didn’t spend much time in the room so it wasn’t the worst problem. One thing to note was that the A/C was tricky. The fan was constantly blowing and we could not figure out how to adjust it. We were cold most nights and there is only a thin blanket. Also, they say the hotel is haunted and we definitely heard a dripping sound at night. But closing the bathroom door solved that problem. The room worked fine for us and we were content but I wouldn’t say this is a luxury hotel by any means. It is quaint and does the job. I do want to point out that the water pressure was phenomenal!

The front desk staff and Brody (doorman/concierge) were all so nice. They helped us with everything! I stayed in room 409. The room is small but beautiful. The water pressure in the shower was excellent. Location is convenient to many attractions by walking.
