One restroom for too many rooms, staff never present.

The property is within walking distance from the French Quarter but the neighbourhood gets somewhat dark at night giving one the feeling of not being safe at all. If you wish to stay out till late at night. consider taking a taxi to get back to the property. Walking, especially if alone, might be dangerous.
It is always good to take precussion for your safety, and we encourage guest to take taxi or call for a ride at the hostel if that would make them feel safer. However, compared to the French Quarters where most of the guest and tourist go, this neighborhood is 99% safer than the French Quarters. However, we are glad you had a safe trip, and please come back and visit us again.

We stayed only 2 days, had to book for 3 days. On arrival, the sheets did not smell fresh. There was no toilet paper in the bathroom. On check-out, 10 dollars were requested to leave the bags. We did not dare to park the car in front of the door. This is absolutely a proof of no-customer friendly mindset. The price for these 2 nights was overrated. I will discourage everyone to go there.
We apologized for the misunderstanding.
There is a $10 charge to store luggage past the checkout time.
Also, we had a policy to leave toilet tissue in each room, for the visitor's private use; and we uphold cleanliness to high standards. Thank you, for choosing Joe and Flo Candlelight Hostel, and letting us serve you.
Sincerely,
Management

No bedbugs as many other reviewers claim to have had to deal with. The staff and Joe and Flo's are amazingly friendly and helpful. For travelers on a budget simply looking for a roof over their head and a lock in their door, Joe and Flo's does the trick.

The reviews we read ahead of time proved to be true. The shower was gross. The bed felt itchy. Our window didn't lock.
But the staff was friendly. The location was better then most of the hostels, although still a tiny walk from the french quarter. All and all it was a good experience.
It would probably be my last choice if I were to come back to New Orleans
