If you'd like to get a little deeper into the Bywater . . this is a GREAT place to try. You've got LOTS of room here . . and private front entrance. Ceiling fans and A/C keep it nice and cool. Stove / fridge and big bed. Unlike many N.O. B&B's . . this has a nice sized bath - with a big shower.

Rent a bike and you're 10 minutes to about anywhere in the Quarter / Marigny / Bywater you'd want to be. My favorites: Faubourg Wine Shop (AND wine BAR - just 2 blocks away) - Saint Roch Market (great for breakfast/lunch/oysters & drinks!) . . and Oxalis (4 blocks). Many, many more though.

Bettina and her husband are just so friendly and accommodating hosts. They are the real soul of this part of N.O. Be sure and chat with them - just genuinely nice people.

Do note - you're only a block or two from the train tracks . . but, hey . .if a train whistle at 2 AM doesn't make you want to hear a Jerry Jeff Walker (or Dylan song) - then just go to a Holiday Inn.

For some - this is . . "off the beaten path" . . for me - it was a breath of fresh air. Loved it - thanks Bettina! jt

BTW . .one of the FEW . .(if ONLY) B&B's I've stayed where there were PLENTY of towels! (It's the small stuff that counts!)
