Lauren's place is lovely! It was my first time staying in the Bywater, and we couldn't have been happier. The place is clean, very cute, and in a wonderful location. I have read a lot about critters in New Orleans, so I was a bit concerned staying outside of a hotel (I know how silly that sounds and I apologize!), but I am pleased to report that everything was spotless, not a critter in sight and very thoughtfully laid out. There were towels, an ironing board, even umbrellas! In addition, Lauren was very easily reachable and there were no glitches in the reservation/check-in/check-out process. Beyond that, Lauren's suggestions and the places within walking distance were just amazing. Loved the neighborhood and would 100% stay here again.
