new NO teacher needs short term hotel/BB

My son is a recent Notre Dame grad. who is in the teachNOLA program. He has a teacher training instutue beginning next week and he has no where to stay (this has all happened within the past week). He has a few leads for a summer sublet but does not want to commit until he gets to NOLA (he arrives 6/19 and ';institute'; begins on 6/21). He is interested in a hotel or B%26amp;B in the mid-city or uptown area (summer training is to be in this general vicinty). If you have any reasonable hotel or BB recommendations he/we would appreciate it!

Thanks,

Peg

Thanks so much...it looks like a good option for my son.

That guest house isn%26#39;t in a very good area. In fact, it%26#39;s a downright rough part of Canal Street in my opinion...very close to I-10. If your budget allows, I%26#39;d suggest the Block-Keller House or 1896 O%26#39;Malley House B%26amp;Bs near Canal and Carrollton, a much nicer area.

I%26#39;d call them both and tell them he%26#39;s teaching and needs a special rate. It%26#39;s summer and properties may wheel and deal!

I%26#39;d try to get a discounted rate at the places Cajunwave mentioned as you do not want to be that far up Canal Street.

ANd go to www.bbnola.com and look at their lists. Then compare the locations to a map.. Finally,since it is summer, definitely ';wheel and deal.'; These places have weekend guests, and still not full in the summer, and almost no one mid week. I%26#39;m sure they would love amonthg-long resident at less than half the nightly cost of short-term guests.
