The house was perfectly clean and looks even better than in the pictures! Carrie was a wonderful host and accommodated our large group of people who arrived at various times. There was coffee in the kitchen and even some extra drinks in the fridge. The neighborhood is walkable to the French Quarter and though houses in the area may at times look rough, we always felt safe. There are some scary caterpillars right outside the door that we didn't plan for though, ha, but overall the experience was wonderful and we would be back!
