My experience of New Orleans was likely different from most guests as it rained/hailed/snowed the whole time I was at Sophie's. Being a bit out of the way from where a lot of things are happening in New Orleans made it awkward to get around in the cold, bad weather without a car. However, Sophie's hospitality and local/transport recommendations really made up for it, alongside the company of her two cats! She didn't seem to mind the amount of time I spent in the house (which is really stylish and has a very inviting atmosphere), was happy to let me order food in, and was really stringent on keeping noise in the mornings and evenings to a minimum. I'd definitely recommend staying here, and I'd hope to do so again when I return in better weather!
