Summary: Lovely place in old Nawlins
james Jul 20, 2026 02:17:57 PM
Summary: It was clean and the breakfast was good.
Lillie Jul 7, 2026 02:59:11 AM
Summary: This is an old house that hasn’t been deep cleaned in a long time. The staff are helpful, but minimally able to provide need services. The white towels/sheets are not white, more dingy color, difficult to tell if they are clean. Wash cloth look like from gas station. I found hair in multiple places in the bathroom. Breakfast was good, offered dishes specifically for area, but only limited amount. Coffee was good and plenty bread and cereals. I would not stay here again. Finally, it says parking available, I had to park on the street. If you return to house early evening, you’re likely to get a parking space on the street.

Andrew Jun 8, 2026 02:34:43 AM
Summary: Beautiful property with so much New Orleans charm. Darryl was extremely helpful and knowledgeable upon check in. Our room was very clean and featured high ceilings, a kitchenette, mini fridge, and bathroom. Beautiful view from the windows. A/C blew super cold and kept the room comfortable. Breakfast was great and Beatriz was very kind (and a great cook). Off street parking behind a gate is such a nice feature, too. Would highly recommend this b&b to anyone looking for a real New Orleans experience.

Summary: This was a super eclectic home. It was cute and well maintained. The room was very cute and had an old style bathtub. The lady who runs it was very sweet and the breakfast the next morning was amazing.

Summary: Would have like to have coffee available and a bigger size tv but we love the area and we love the atmosphere
Margaret May 24, 2026 12:26:16 AM
Summary: The Fairchild House is very charming, and all in all, is a nice place to stay, with reasonable rates. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was plentiful and good. Shrimp and grits on the weekend was so good, my husband became a convert. My biggest complaint is the tiny shower stall which needs something to make the shower floor non-slip. The bed was comfy, but the pillows were almost useless. The place was clean enough, with minor exceptions.
Maura May 14, 2026 12:53:56 PM
Summary: The room (first floor) was clean. Very small bathroom. Bed very comfortable. Tiny tv, not much bigger than an IPad. Building very old, musty smell but AC helped. Nice. continental breakfast served on weekdays with an additional hot dish on weekends. Super friendly and helpful staff. Close walking distance to street car. We did not have a car but parking did not seem to be an issue.

Summary: the location is great. Breakfast is fabulous. Staff were all warm-hearted and very helpful. The building and room where I stayed is a bit old-dated. The bathroom needs update and better maintenance.
