2 week stay in French Quarter

We are coming to Jazz Fest %26#39;08 and are intending to stay for approx. 15 days. Can anyone recommend somewhere in the French Quarter that would be suitable? We%26#39;re basically looking for somewhere cheap and clean to sleep :) We won%26#39;t have a car, so parking is no problem, but we%26#39;re hoping for somewhere that offers a cheaper rate for a longer stay. Any ideas?

I don%26#39;t think ';cheap'; will happen during Jazz Fest. Hotels are full both weekends at full rate.

Disregard the Jazz Fest remark... where would you recommend for a 2 weeks stay in the FQ at other times of the year?

For 2 weeks, I think you%26#39;d want a Bed and Breakfast or suite-type hotel to give you a little ';breathing room.'; I can%26#39;t imagine being stuck in a regular hotel room all that time!

For B%26amp;Bs, try www.bbnola.com.

Suite hotels can be found throughout the downtown New Orleans area.

Sorry I don%26#39;t have any specific recommendations but hopefully these are good places to start your research, SJade!

I have never looked but VRBO.com has done me well in many other loactions. I would check it out for New Orleans.

I would hesitate to recommend VRBO in New Orleans. Most properties listed are ILLEGAL RENTALS, not insured and not licensed by the City. There%26#39;s no getting around the very-clear law: unless licensed as a ';short-term'; rental (B%26amp;B, hotel, or timeshare), a property can%26#39;t be rented for less than 60 days in the FQ, 30 days elsewhere in Orleans Parish.
