The home was exactly as described. AWESOME location. Everywhere that we wanted to go was within 2-3 miles. French Quarter is not within walking distance, so be prepared for a short Uber ride (or maybe streetcar). Even if you have a car, driving to French Quarter or Garden District is not feasible because parking is extremely expensive. For example, it costed us $45 to park for just 5 hours.
There was plenty of room for a family of 9. The long hallways provided privacy between the bedrooms.
Gated parking is a plus!
Depending on where you are from and what you are used to, the neighborhood may appear to be a bit questionable at first. It was fine for us and we had no issues and felt safe. It appears to be on a street that is being revamped with some new houses and some older. There is a mechanic garage next door that yielded a little extra traffic coming and going. The house is a duplex, so if you have a noisy group downstairs it can be disturbing if you are looking for peace and quiet. Again, this didn’t bother us because we had noisy kids ourselves, and it was New Year’s weekend so we didn’t expect quiet. There is also another duplex that shares the driveway, so the noise level is totally based on the guests that happen to be there during your stay (they all appear to be AIRBNB units).
All in all, I don’t have any complaints with my stay and would definitely stay here again!
