We LOVED the space. When friends stopped in to meet up, they all ooohh'ed and aaaahhh'ed and played with all the memorabilia. There are personal, lived-in, historical touches throughout. Very cool!! Definitely made it feel like we were in New Orleans. The yard is lovely. The chickens are charming We did not make it into the hot tub, which is one if my regrets--it is in a fantastic spot on the roof of a building in the yard. The furnishings in the house are very comfortable. The king bed in particular was just right--very kind to my bad back, with yummy feather pillows and down comforter. The closet in the bigger bedroom is a trip, with huge antique doors and more hidden treasures. The clawfoot tub is luxurious. The entire space is comfortable enough to feel homey, and New Orleans enough to feel magical. The street feels very safe and friendly, and seemed to be 10 minutes from anyplace we wanted to go. I would definitely go back, and will recommend the place to my friends.
