Location is perfect, safe, good breakfast, clean, friendly staff.Shortly strongly recommended.

This hostel is phenomenal! Everyone is so kind and the guests were super respectful. It was clean, comfortable and felt very safe (for self and belongings). It was quiet at night and I had no trouble sleeping, especially if you have earplugs in case your roommates come in later than you or get up early. The bathrooms could use a bit more cleaning, but it wasn't bad. Just bring flip flops!

Great stay for the Taylor Swift concert in NOLA. Check in clerk was a little abrasive but everyone else for the stay was delightful. Only issue we had was no ice available. We were told to go to the attached cafe for ice but we were charged . Otherwise, great visit and loved our queen suite with bunkbeds.

Amazing stay looking forward to it again

Hotels.com limits the characters you can put in a review. So I'm going to paraphrase my google review:
A stain on my birthday trip, Not sure how this place has such high reviews. Maybe I'm not their target audience. I reserved a private room.
Woman at the front desk with glasses needs to find a new job. Hospitality isn't her strong suit as she is easily overwhelmed.
Keeping a running tab of other things I ran into during my stay.
Door system needs to be reworked. So many people were confused while coming and going
Your alcohol is policed if you bring it in from bourbon st. Watched staff harass a woman over a closed beer.
The stand that holds your luggage on your room is broken.
Tacky decor. Plants growing in water bottles and board games nailed to the wall.
Guests aren't allowed, even if they're your friends they WILL ask them for ID and if they're a local they will be kicked out.
Bathroom fan is very loud/Bed is creaky. Hope your partner isn't a soft sleeper.
Water machine only serves warm water. No ice machine in the building.
Elevator is slow as molasses.
Picture on the bedroom wall is Crooked. Not a big deal but seriously?
Window has misleading labels on it. "Do not open the window but if you do don't do any of the things listed." Also not a big deal but what?
Bathroom light is on a timer. So while you're showing it can (will) just cut off. Hope you don't trip and fall.
Bathroom sink has a VERY slow drain. The Toothpaste from yesterday hasn't gone down

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!

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!

It was nice stay enjoyed. Could’ve used better breakfast options but the stay and area was awesome and convenient!
4.7
Location was great for getting around the city
4.7
If they had a free ice machine this place would be perfect.
4.7
The entrance hall is great, lots of seating to socialise or chill. The locker room is excellent. The refill station and recycling bins were great. I see no need for plastic bottles of water to be on sale.
The room i was in had 4 beds and it was very spacious. The bed was comfy and warm. I was lucky to be the only one in the room. The noise from the street however was disturbing, aside from shouting and cars some roadworks started at 10pm and continued til 2am. I was able to lie in late the next day but others may find that irritating. Room 314
I'd like to see recycling opportunities carried on upstairs.
The location was great as i got a bus then streetcar to the door for the price of $2.75!

Pretty great place. Modern. Clean. Steps away from Bourbon Street.
4.7
Super clean and great staff

Right on canal close to bourbon with IHOP right across the street clean rooms and you can only get in with key
4.7
Over charge me when I haven’t been there in weeks
4.7
Overall, it was good! Good price, good location, good cleanliness, and beds with curtains. However, the room smelt like a dormitory, and the air was a bit stuffy. Also, multiple hair dryers and bathrooms were out of order the last day of a long weekend.
4.7
Convenient location, friendly staff, clean rooms. We enjoyed our stay.
4.7
Fantastic hostel! Don’t get your hopes high for air con in the room tho! For the rest, it was excellent ! The breakfast was generous (and free!)! Would stay there again ! It is well located and not loud!
4.7
First time staying in a Hostel. The staff made my experience nothing short of EXCEPTIONAL! I’ll definitely be back!

The room was beyond hot. The facility is nice, but be prepared to melt in your room. The lack of sleep wasn't worth it.
4.7
Great location to be and free breakfast

Great option.
4.7
Very unique place.
4.7
Friendly staff. Good location. Storage lockers so you can still explore the city when you check out are a great perk.
4.7
Though New Orleans is a crazy city, Hi Hostel was quite a nice and cosy place. I could rest after walking the city and its noisy streets in the hostel.
4.7
All was well. It would be nice if they had a noise block as my room was right on Canal street and it was REALLY NOISY
4.7
I had the private room. Clean and bed was very comfortable but the room was a little humid
4.7
The property itself is great! I would stay at the property again. Only giving 4 of 5 stars due to the homeless camped out on the sidewalk a few doors down.
4.7
Absolutely great atmosphere, cleanliness and staff.
4.7
Good location
4.7
This is a decent place. The bed/shared room was comfortable and functional. I would have liked an individual bathroom for each room. You have to use a shared one. While there are plenty to use, it means getting up at night to use the restroom is more difficult.
The shared space on the first and second floor are nice. It is not too difficult to strike up conversation with other travelers. There is a "library" that can be closed for more privacy, but you will never really be isolated. I prefer this, but I know not everyone will.
The biggest problem is the noisy street in front. There were people walking by blasting music every night the week I stayed. Even on the third floor people were so loud that I heard their entire conversation. If it wasn't pedestrians, then it was police sirens. Don't expect a quiet evening/night.
