I had the pleasure of staying at Sweet Alyssum with 9 close friends and we enjoyed every minute. The place is spacious and stunning, just like in the pictures. Carrie is a gracious host and excellent communicator and was fantastic throughout. She even personally greeted the first of our group to arrive to make sure we were well settled in from the start. The neighborhood is not the nicest around but we never felt unease and you can't beat the close proximity to Frenchman Street. I would highly recommend Sweet Alyssum if you are looking for a one of a kind place with easy access to all New Orleans has to offer.
