We stayed at this location for three nights. Patrick was available from the time of booking with recommendations in the area. The streetcar was a perfect way to get around. We were going to Monday night football in the Superdome, and took the streetcar to the game, to The French Quarter, to The Garden District, and along the Waterfront. The best part was that it stopped right in front of the house. There is a Walgreens a couple blocks down Canal, and they had the three day passes for the streetcar. You can also pay per day ($3) on the streetcar or per ride ($1.25).

The Ruby Slipper restaurant was AMAZING for breakfast. It is just a couple blocks from the house. We went to the Morning Call coffee shop in the City Park, but we didn't think it was as good as the Cafe du Monde. Tip on the Cafe du Monde, don't wait for a table go to the back side of the restaurant and get it "to go" and sit on steps looking over Jackson Square.

The house was great. I loved the huge stained glass window in the kitchen area. We didn't cook in the kitchen because there was too much good food in New Orleans. Around the corner from the house is a bakery and gelato shop, I can't remember the name, but Patrick has paperwork in the house with the name. It is just around the corner from the Walgreens. Also, we ate at the Mexican Restaurant next door to the bakery, and the food was great....not much for atmosphere, but great food. (try the green sauce on the table).

We live in the city, so we are used to road noise. You do hear road noise at night in this location. You do not hear any people, just cars. If you stay in the Quarter you hear people all night long.

If I come back to New Orleans, I would definitely rent this location again. We spent every late night on the deck watching the world go by and drinking wine. :) The streetcar allowed us to park our car and not move it until we left the city.

Thank you Patrick for a great stay!

P.S. I felt very safe in this location.
