Great spot to stay if you’re planning on running all over New Orleans and/or doing some remote work. We each had a separate space to unwind and some comfortable shared spaces in this wonderful shotgun apartment. Having two bathrooms and a jacuzzi tub on one of them was a plus too!
If you’re not familiar with the area, we’d recommend googling the neighborhood (Seventh Ward) and taking a look at the street view. It’s a bit run down with a lot of construction on the street out front of the house that limits additional parking - and the side street where the driveway and back of house are have a ton of garbage, stray cats (who were all very cute), and a bunch of busted up cars. The fence and back window of the property were also boarded up (probably from hurricane damage) but was a bit disconcerting when we first arrived. A perk was having gated private parking off the street. Other things to note - noise from the street into the house was pretty loud on the evenings (mostly on weekend nights - but some during other evenings as well) but it’s a neighborhood so in some ways that’s to be expected. the provided ear plugs and sound machine were helpful since some evenings when folks were walking down the street felt as though they were right in one of the bedrooms.
All in all, good place for a decent price. Easy to get to French Quarter and other places (would recommend a car to get there and parking near Louis Armstrong Park) or an Uber. Wouldn’t walk there!
Thank you for the stay, be well!
