I stayed in Connor's house with 5 others in NOLA for my sister's bachelorette party. When we first arrived I thought it was going to be a tight squeeze for all of us to stay there, but it worked out just fine. There was plenty of space for us to spread out, and the pull out couch was pretty comfy by pull-out couch standards. There were plenty of mirrors and "getting ready" space, so having only one bathroom was really not an issue for us.

The location of the house was decent. We were only a short 10 minute walk to magazine street and 5-10 mins walk to the middle of the garden district. We enjoyed ambling through those streets and enjoying the architecture. The block itself was spotty, some abandoned homes, mixed with rather new looking renovations. Ideally the house would have been closer to the action (maybe like 3-4 blocks north) but for the price I think the location is great! We did not meet the infamous neighbor from others' reviews, but everyone we encountered around the area was very friendly and welcoming.

We had no problems with transportation or getting around to the different spots we wanted to explore. Cabs came within 20 mins (use checker-yellow cab NOT united! Checker-yellow was spot on even when we called ahead for airport pickups) And the St. Charles streetcar was about 15-20 min walk, and takes you right to the FQ. Connor was great in leaving an awesome binder full of recommendations, maps and phone numbers for all kinds of local stuff. It was an amazing resource for us since most had never visited NOLA before. Connor was also very available via text, I never felt like I was hanging around waiting for an answer. That was a great help too for finding things around the house.

All in all, a positive experience. We loved the fact that towels were provided (color coded, at that!), extra sheets, dishes, coffee maker and coffee and a few snacks to hold us over. That was so helpful! Also, Walmart is conveniently a short walk away, so we stocked up on breakfast foods and booze to help keep costs down.

We had such a fun trip, the time we spent at the house included! I will definitely look into staying here again on my next trip to NOLA. Thanks Connor!
