Beautiful old NOLA home, however not prepared for cold weather---as the heat was set to 76 degrees and was working, however the inside temp. was 52-55 in main living areas the whole time we were there, causing us to find things to do inside elsewhere in New Orleans--which got very expensive (ex. 2 hrs at the aquarium $95 for 3 people).....just to avoid the cold outside and inside the home. The host did stop by on day 2 and dropped off 3 sm. space heaters, however due to the old electrical in the house---the space heaters kept blowing the fuses. This was an expensive stay at $1000 a night + all the expense of finding other things to do due to the house being so cold the entire trip.
