I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that you won't find a better place to stay in New Orleans than in this gorgeous house in this wonderful neighbourhood with a host whose generosity is unmatched and a wonderful porch to enjoy your coffee or wine whilst you watch the world go by!
Debbie and her co-host, Carmen, were incredibly communicative from the outset, which was super helpful as our flight got cancelled and we needed to (luckily) stay another night in this lovely room! Where shall I begin to tell you how this place is so great? Well first, upon arrival after dark, the house looked incredibly atmospheric with light peaking through the shutters. We entered to find a candle burning, the ceiling fan going, and snacks at the ready after our long drive from Savannah. You couldn't have asked for a better welcome!
After strolling through the neighbourhood, enjoying some delish tacos, taking in some music and some beer, we came back to have one of the best night's sleep I've had in ages - the bed is incredible and the room is very stylish and uncluttered.
I awoke the next morning and partook of the coffee that was left for us (replenished midweek very generously!) and unpacked. There's plenty of space for all my stuff and my husband's as well, and so we never felt cramped or cluttered. We felt right at home (but like...a cooler home, ha!).
We were lucky enough to run into Debbie one night out and enjoyed a beer (or two!) with her and her lovely friends. What a joy! Debbie is a great host and a wonderful human being - you really couldn't ask for a better place to stay or greater hospitality. Thank you so much for everything, Debbie!
