Colin was a great host, and gave great Southern hospitality, in light of our flight out being cancelled. He has made some interesting decisions about his property, which remained warm and habitable through some unseasonable weather in NOLA.
The unit is graced with a large shower in the very clean bathroom, and a Sleep Number bed for the primary bedroom. The mini fridge was in a separate laundry, both of which we did use.
The lounge has a sleeper sofa of sorts, which, thankfully, we didn't have to use. Other accomodations in the lounge are minimal. WiFi bandwith was not good at times. We ended up buying filters for the coffee pot to brew our own ground coffee, rather than the packets of instant that were provided; but we are fussy about having good coffee in the morning; and brought our own Starbucks Sumatran as proof of that point.
If you can't plan to have your meals downtown before you come back to the unit at night, the local options within walking distance are minimal and limited to fast food. There were no breakfast options we would consider available within walking distance from the unit- so, coffee and the 51 bus to Canal Street every morning.
