We stayed at the Bienville House the French quarter. It is a historic hotel that is not on the main drag. We found it to be lovely and quaint. Prices were reasonable (for NOLA.) My advice would be to get an interior room. They are the least expensive and the most quiet. There is not an included breakfast, but there is coffee/tea in the lobby and refrigerators in the rooms. A nice breakfast restaurant, "The Ruby Slipper" is a block away and there is a McDonalds that is an easy walk.
