Our stay at the Courtyard Cottage was lovely, very cozy and quaint. We walked one short block to Mojo coffee each morning to jump-start our day. Shopping along Magazine Street is steps away. The Bus stop right out on our street corner was an easy ride into the Quarter. Two blocks up to St. Charles was the Trolley, which is an easy way to get further uptown to some of the local bars and markets, or to the Quarter in the opposite direction.

Matilde was fairly easy to reach via text whenever we had a question. She and her husband really stick to the main house and let their guests enjoy privacy and freedom of coming and going. They left a nice list of local suggestions for bars, restaurants, wine stores/markets in the area.

The space was clean and comfortable. Extra sheets and towels were available and a washer/dryer was onsite, which was helpful for us during our 4-night stay. The shower size is fine, but the water pressure was very weak. It took about 3-4 minutes for hot water to warm up and the temps were pretty drastic: very hot or very cold, not a happy medium.

We enjoyed our stay and would consider staying here again. It was truly a perfect location for us, easy, relaxing, private and cute.
