Mardi Gras Manor

We stayed here for thanksgiving. The location is perfect but I found the people in the reception not as helpful. We had a few very simple requests and they were all answered as if the requests ware too complicated. For instance, we asked to have our bags held after the check out because we had a late flight. The reply was that they could hold until 1pm. Why? What is the difference to hold until 5pm since they are in the office until 5pm?
Unfortunately, to make matters ever worse, we had a mouse in our unit. I again went to complain and they answered «don’t worry, the mouse now knows that there are people in the unit and it probably went bye-​bye». I think they think they are funny when the matter is actually serious. The mouse didn’t go «bye bye». It lives underneath the range on unit 8. There is a hole there and the mouse comes in and out as it wishes. I find it amazing that they don’t have pest control for mouses here. I saw it many times! The people working here told me they would put a trap. Nope! They didn’t. We’re checking out tomorrow and so far no trap.
We had a great time in NOLA (we are still here as I write this) but I’m not sure I’d like to come back to this «resort». And if I don’t, the main reason will not even be the mouse, ir will the staff. Maria, mentioned by many people here as helpful, was in fact, the worst of them all and the ones always making things difficult.
UPDATE: in the morning of our last day I went to the office and found a very nice older couple there instead of Maria. I asked again about the luggage storage and they were wonderful. The only reason I’m giving 3 stars is because of them. They were owners from the board of directors. They stored our luggage and even offered to lock my notebook in the office if necessary.

Great location! Just minutes from Bourbon in one direction and the French Market in the other! Maria was so nice and very helpful!

Fabulous quiet location, convenient to best music & restaurants. We had a one bedroom with full kitchen– great to take a break from rich food once in a while! Grocery store located ½ block away. Staff are wonderful, especially Maria. If you want to feel like one of the locals, this is the perfect home away from home.

Great location. But the unit we had – 9– The bathroom was terrible – tiny and the shower had no water pressure.

Very nice spot. It is a small place with just a few units, so it is very quiet. There is a small pool and garden. The complex is secured by a locked gate. If you are driving you will have a problem with finding parking. Not much in the immediate area and what there is can be expensive. If you are not going to travel outside the New Orleans area I would suggest a shuttle in and then use public transportation, which is very good. You can walk anywhere in the French Quarter from the Manor. Maria, the on site manager is a wonderful asset. The TVs have been updated to nice flat screens. Wifi is available but the reception was poor for us.

Great place to stay! I had booked a week through RCI except it turned out the reservation was for the following year! Maria, the onsite manager of this quaint and charming place worked magic and saved our vacation; got us almost 2 full weeks due to someone’s last minute cancellation. Our one bedroom unit was comfy and clean. The only negatives were the small outdated TV set and poor quality WiFi reception; off and on, poor signal. The location of this little gem was outstanding; quiet French Quarter street but still convenient to the busy part of the Quarter as well as the nearby clubs and restaurants of the Marigny and Bywater neighborhoods. I can’t shower enough praise on Maria and this charming place.

Wonderful place to stay! Only a few blocks from bourbon and the french market. Very pretty property and has everything you need. Far enough from boubon and all the action to have some quiet and relaxation by the pool. Maria was wonderfully helpful, great service!
