Truly an exceptional shotgun house with a gracious host that was very friendly and responsive as well as accommodating with simple needs. As we have an 11 year old pup with mobility issues, it was great to find a pet friendly place and one where you'd never know anyone's pet every stayed there as its immaculate. She enjoyed the big window and watching all of the cats in the neighborhood. The courtyard was decent place to sit and felt quite private even if shared with the owner. If you review the photos, its as accurate as they look so you'll have a great kitchen, great bathroom, 3 beds across 2 bedrooms, one of which has 2 twin beds, shared. The neighbor's courtyard very friendly looking and nice view of a Marie Leveau mural on the adjacent wall that just screams New Orleans but is very tastefully done. A few words to the wise, but these are more New Orleans concerns and not a reflection on the location just friendly "tips." One, you'll play pothole frogger on the street in front of the house and while residents are more accustomed, this takes some getting used to. Its unfortunate with owners like this making such tremendous investment in the neighborhoods, the government ignores their job or meets the effort evenly. Secondly, you're sharing a block with the Zulu Social Club even if across the major Broad St thoroughfare. And while really the niche of this house makes it feel removed enough, its not a completely quiet neighborhood but at times, sitting on the porch, its still peaceful enough for a city. There is a certain flow of people coming through the neighborhood at night, they don't seem to care that you're there, but NOLA's crime is worth paying attention to and one should mind their 6's as you come and go at least in the evening. The neighborhood has families and established people who are just living their lives. We didn't find much of those mentioned things a downer to our experience but we feel they should be fairly mentioned in reviews like this so there's a sense of reality and helpfulness for others coming to the city. In the end, everything was worth any trouble and we had a really great time staying in Mick's place and would gladly consider it when coming back!
