The hostel is clean, the breakfast is good and the kitchen has everything you need to cook your food. The lockers in the room are big, so a carry-on and a backpack will fit easily. They also have bathrooms outside of the room, which makes it easier to use a different one if the one close to your room is occupied. I definitely recommend this place

Nice alternative to a hotel
I love staying here! The guy with the glasses and thick mustache is my least favorite but everyone else is so kind and nice! The word is starting to get out about this best kept secret and it’s starting to get a little wild, SO you had better visit quickly before it gets any more wild!

Amazing start to our couples cruise trip
Love love love the Hi New Orleans Hostel!!! Perfect location…not too far from the party streets and not too close either! We rested very well! Amazing Front desk personnel! They provided a parking recommendation ($25 overnight parking fee) and provided info to get a discount on the parking fee! #Winning Booking here every chance I get when we come to Nola baby!
