My wife and I enjoyed this wonderful place when we helped in some re-building projects around Mardi Gras, when rooms were often hard to find. The owner, Zak Rahman, was most gracious to us, and even gave us a discount for helping New Orleans! It was a privilege to help and to learn more of what New Orleans and its... more

Schiro's is great. We changed our date of arrival twice and had no problems at all. The price was surprisingly reasonable, and the staff was friendly. Tiny hotel upstairs without stuffy B&B feel, with micro/fridge. Small grocery/bar/restaurant downstairs met all our needs.

My husband and I booked 4 nights along with another couple at the guesthouse. We would say that the pictures were pretty accurate on their website except for the fact that the drapes were stained from rain dripping in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. We felt that they were lacking enough linens (washcloths to be exact). Lynn, who worked as waitress... more

Nice place to stay, located right in downtown New Orleans..... easy walk to anywhere including Bourbon Street. Good service and great free breakfast. Very friendly atmosphere and homy to the place. more

This place was very amazing. The people were very kind and up to speed on things. The only problems I had with the place was trouble getting towels replaced. Other than that great place and wonderful location. The breakfast....man, absolutely amazing. more
