The location was fantastic - easy walking distance to most things for a short weekend. The garden/balcony was perfect to chill with a book or meet others. The team are quite possibly the friendliest I’ve ever come across; lots of evening activities which you join and band out together into the wild after.

I particularly have only good things to say about the hostel, the location is wonderful. Close to everything, restaurants, walgreens and breakfast places. In fact, Cafe Avenue has become my favorite, for those who want a calm and good place for a coffee. I loved the people, the respect for each one's space and being a woman, I thought I would be afraid to share the house with so many men, but sharing the room with the girls and our bathroom, always organized and clean, was super peaceful. In addition, the security of the passwords on the doors was very good. The whole hostel has impeccable organization and cleanliness and really, I only have amazing things and wonderful memories from there.

All hostels in New Orleans

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The reality was better than the pictures, cleanliness, privacy, location of the place, staff, breakfast, safety, everything was perfect. I was in New York and there was a hostel with the same name. I stayed there for several days, but this hostel in New Orleans was the best in everything. How I wish New York had a place like this.

    I like everything in this hostel. The kitchen is fully equipped, very clean and roomy. The bathrooms are always kept clean with many clean towels. There are a lot of seats/sofas in the lounge and dining room. I like everything in this hostel. It is the best hostel that I have been in USA so far. Thanks to the manager and all staff working in the hostel. You guys have done a great job.
