First of all this neighborhood is incredible! Quiet, safe, and vibrant. Every house is a colorful gem and it's very easy to walk to several cafes, bars, restaurants, and even a church. There are also a couple parks nearby and no one drives fast so it's great for kids. The ferry is also just a couple blocks away so you can be in the French Quarter in 15 minutes AND not have to worry about parking. It's awesome to be so close to the New Orleans attractions but also be able to get away from the bustle into a quiet neighborhood. Ms. Millie's historic house is well maintained, full of charm, and decorated for Mardi Gras. The layout is like the old shotgun style so not every room is completely private (for instance you have to walk through one bedroom to get to another) but the rooms are large so there was plenty of space for our family to spread out. Plus there's a great porch and a side yard for kids to play. I would definitely stay here again!
