Deanie’s place is perfection. Our family of 5 stayed at her place for a week in June, with the unintended weather benefit of a Tropical Storm to boot. We wanted a place in the city, but away from the French Quarter for a real feel of New Orleans.
We enjoyed our stay immensely. Deanie is the embodiment of the New Orleans spirit. Gracious, welcoming, and a genuinely great host. Arrival/check in was smooth with her reaching out to us before the stay with instructions, and the house was good. Deanie was thoughtful - she had toys for our children to play with, locally made alligator sausage (YUM!!!), and hints/instructions were clearly located. She was always quick to answer any questions.
Our children loved the pool, and as parents, we loved having a private & secluded backyard. The washer & dryer in the unit were heavenly— traveling with children, we utilized these daily & were able to pack way less. The air conditioning worked great, and the unit had ample water pressure for a nice hot shower. There were plenty of towels/hand towels/washcloths in the linen closet in the bathroom. We found the beds to be very comfortable. We used the internet to watch a movie. There were games in the front room to use which we enjoyed.
The location of Deanie’s place was ideal for us. Located in an area called Mid City, it’s a couple blocks to walk to City Park, with miniature golfing, snow cones, Storeyland, etc. We walked to the neighborhood coffee shop 2 blocks away, and could easily zip through town to get around to sightsee. There’s a grocery store about 6-7 blocks away.
