I decided to escape Chicago and stay in New Orleans for a month and could not have selected a better place! The location is perfect, far enough away from the quarter to enjoy the life of New Orleans, but close enough to get there easily (a great bike ride down Esplanade!), on the bayou, easy access to City Park, Wonderful and convenient dining close by with an incredibly well stocked small grocery store, just a perfect place to be. The space itself worked out great for me to work from there while enjoying New Orleans. The upstairs bedroom was perfect for me (with a large bathroom), downstairs the guest room was appreciated by friends who came through town and stayed the weekend (with its own bathroom also), the living room was spacious, as was the kitchen. There is a cute backyard area (which I didn't really use, but lots of light coming from it to the kitchen), a great porch with a couch out front to relax and watch the ducks on the bayou, and easy to use wifi, tv etc. John and Misty are super nice- very accommodating - and made the stay relaxing with their positive energy and helpful natures. I can't say enough good things and hope to stay with them again in the future!
