My wife and I lived in New Orleans for 5 years and were back visiting family and friends for a week. The short version - Marlene's place is perfect!
It is a classic N.O. house with a nice, spacious bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen. The location could not be better for someone looking to stay Uptown. There are numerous transportation options close by as well as parks, restaurants, bars, shops, and cafes within easy walking distance (Cherry Coffee and Saba are particularly wonderful). My wife worked remotely the whole week and had no issues with the wifi connection.
Even during the muggy heat of the summer, my wife and I had a fantastic time!
