Such a great stay, perfect location, fantastic house. We’re so glad we booked it early! Dan is the perfect host, we messaged him about something, I think not more than 5 minutes later he knocked on our door to hand deliver what we inquired about. The house is equipped for any season, and we were all very comfortable. We were a group of 8, and if one is willing to sleep on the couch and the other on a queen air mattress (as 2 in our group were), you will be super comfortable. The shotgun (railroad) style didn’t bother us at all, mainly bc the floorboards aren’t creaky at all. Plenty of space for everyone.
The neighborhood is great, and Dan provides recommendations for nearby cafes, shops, etc. Two coffee houses within two blocks kept us alive over our New Years vacation. Lovely and safe walk to the French Quarter, but super quiet street.
I’ve stayed in a few made-to-Airbnb places and they tend to have some of the nice-to-have amenities missing, but this one didn’t. Plenty of towels, extra blankets, space heaters, well-working ice machine, lots of mirrors and lamps in each room, bedside tables, etc. You’d be surprised what a lot of places are missing, so we were really happy.
