So convenient to be one block from the street car. The highlight of the adventure. The owner/host of the Fairchild house was very nice to relocate us to another room in another building away from the overwhelming smell of mold and mildew from the Fairchild house. The despairity between the 8.8 rating and actual condition of the property should be of concern to anyone even considering staying there. The other building was one of the poorest renovations I have experienced. Overall, I look back and chalk it all up to " an experience in mental illness".

A charming property in a beautiful neighborhood. The staff was thoughtful and accommodating. When my flight was delayed they kept the office open to help me settle upon arrival and they worked with my schedule for breakfast, local recommendations, and departure time. The building is beautiful, classic New Orleans style and a very interesting place to stay. The room was comfortable and felt safe and private. Stay at Fairchild house - you won't be disappointed!

I would never recommend that anyone stay at this bed and breakfast. Run - don’t walk - away!! The hotel is in complete disrepair, the grounds are a mess (don’t believe the photos online), the walls are covered with marks and dirt… Had three nights reserved and only stayed the first night because we could not find any other vacancy for that evening. Do NOT stay here - the state of this place is shameful.

I used to really like staying here but it has really fallen in my estimation. The mattress was really hard and the pillows were really done. The staff is nice but a lot better value for the money can be had elsewhere.

Anthony

It's an old house with small bedrooms but that's to be expected. The bathroom was nice. There could have been more attention given to the wooden surfaces such as the staircase; needed a refinish. The courtyard was covered in leaves that could have been weeks since last swept. The location is very convenient for public transport and food options. The breakfast was underwhelming. Just fruit, cereal, boiled egg, and cold cuts. The only things hot were the coffee and the bread or english muffin you could toast. Nice people. Would stay again if they came down about $25 on the price I paid.

Let’s stay at Fairchild House again

Breakfast exceeded my expectations. Prepared and ready ahead of time. Plenty of space and no rush. Darrel checked us in and thoroughly explained and showed us the area. When free street parking was filled nearby we parked in their lockable solid metal paneled gates to the parking area directly behind their units.

If you’re looking for a bougie place, keep looking. This place is authentic old Nola. Very eclectic, unique and a little spooky. We were quite surprised by the breakfast! Miss Kathy served us homemade cheese and spinach soufflé with sausage. Great conversation as well! We will definitely be making this a regular stay!
