We loved our trip to New Orleans. Matilde's place is in a nice quiet safe neighborhood. She has a security fenced yard with the cottage directly behind her house. She was very flexible and allowed us to store our bags when we arrived early in the morning.

The cottage is a one room studio apartment with a small bathroom. We didn't use the kitchen this trip mostly because the cottage is one block from Magazine street with a number of great restaurants. The bus stops directly in front of the house to go the French Quarter or you can walk a couple of blocks and take the street car. Either way, the location is perfect unless you just have to be right in the Quarter.

The wireless internet was the fastest I have ever had outside of my own house. The water pressure was low in the shower. It was adequate but not great. The bed was a comfortable queen. Everything was clean.

This is a very nice alternative to a hotel room at the price.
