Mid-City Location

No Uber Needed: Walk to the Streetcar, Ride to the French Quarter

From Site 61, the French Quarter is a 10-minute walk and a streetcar ride away. Stroll through the shotgun houses and corner bars of an authentic Mid-City New Orleans neighborhood to the Canal Street streetcar at Canal and Telemachus, then climb aboard one of the city’s classic red streetcars and ride straight down Canal Street toward the French Quarter. No rideshare, no parking, just the way New Orleanians have gotten around for generations.

Closer to home, the Iris Motel pool is across the street, neighborhood favorites like Finn McCool’s, Mandina’s and Liuzza’s are a short walk away, and the Superdome, the National WWII Museum and City Park are all about 10 minutes by car.

"I had a great stay at this beautiful historical home! The house is full of character, with charming details that made it feel both special and welcoming. Jasmin was incredibly sweet and accommodating—her warmth really added to the experience. The beds were extremely comfortable, and I absolutely loved the bathrooms—stylish and well-kept. Overall, everything was cozy, clean, and peaceful. I would definitely stay here again!" -

Marisol

My husband and I could not have had a better time and experience. The room was very simple but fresh and clean. The ambiance of the entire place was phenomenal. There were two bar/food places walking distance down the road into a beautiful neighborhood. The look on my husband’s face when we arrived for his birthday surprise was amazing. 10/10 would recommend and stay again. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I didn’t want to leave."
