I very much enjoyed my stay in Dominique's little guesthouse.
It's a small room, with a small bathroom, in a small tropical enclave he has assembled behind the main house. It is covered in vines, so there is an earthy aroma when first entering, to which I went noseblind within 30 seconds or so.
It is a charmingly offbeat space in a good neighborhood and I loved it. The affectionate pup-dogs are a bonus! The buses run quickly along both Magazine and Tchupatulas, and the St Charles streetcar is less than 15 minutes away at a purposeful gait. It's a great neighborhood for those who understand walking.
I would definitely consider another stay here.
This might not be a good match for the finicky, skittish or conservative travellers, or for those with mobility issues or problems with small living spaces.
