I stayed here for two weeks at the start of Mardi Gras and felt right at home. I usually prefer having a place to myself, but the living room and private bathroom, along with the bedroom, was just the right amount of space. Gail was great to chat and hang with, but I could also just chill out and watch Netflix when I needed to. Wally was great company.
I found the house to be centrally located. I walked and used the bus during the day and took Ubers in the evening. (Sadly, I’m not comfortable commuting by bike, but that would be a great option for people who are.) Having the King Cake hub right there was fantastic! If there was any downside, it’s that there are only a few local businesses to visit and the neighborhood isn’t as stroll-able as others in the city. I just had to be more strategic when I didn’t have set plans. I enjoyed The Rook Cafe and Le’s Baguette, which were 1-2 miles south.
