The guest house is exactly as described and looks just like the pictures. As other guests have noted, Darleen leaves a little gift of crossaints and pains au chocolat, which we all enjoyed. It is small but very well decorated and maintained. It was cool, clean, and quiet there. The shower was really nice, and the wi-fi was fast. There is a cute courtyard with a pond and my daughter enjoyed playing there with Darleen's daughter. I will say that the sleeping situation was not as comfortable as I had hoped. There is a pull out couch and a futon, but of which have thin mattresses. When my husband and I slept on the pull-out bed, we both ended up sagging into the middle. I have insomnia, so I was the one who suffered more from this arrangement.

Other than that, it was a nice, comfortable stay. The neighborhood felt safe, and we walked up to Magazine Street to explore on the evening of our arrival. Very cool neighborhood with lots of great shops and restaurants. We only stayed for a weekend, but I wish we had had more time to explore. Darleen makes herself very available to her guests by leaving her cell phone number if you have questions or need recommendations for things to do. I definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay a bit away from the touristy areas of town.
