immaculately clean!
There was some miscommunication at check-in, I had arrived 45 minutes early and had received information from Thomas a few weeks prior on early procedure. It would have been better if I had reconfirmed arrival time closer to my arrival date.
The available refrigerator spaces, ability to use the kitchen and wash laundry was a huge bonus for me
The private bathroom was stocked and immaculate, as was the bedroom. Thoughtful touches were throughout the room....luggage rack, tour pamphlets, information binder, bed lamps, overhead fan, dark out curtains.....
Classic musicians from bygone eras played whenever Thomas was home, it was charming to hear these gems.
Location, Jet buses are available from MSY airport for $2 fee....takes approximately an hour and dropoff at Galvez and Canal is within a short walk.
My Lyft back to the airport was about $40.
Day passes on the trolley and bus system is $3.... riding the trolley is a treat....being able to see houses along St Charles.
There are some wonderful gems walking distance near Thomas's home....
Margie's Grill is excellent... walk-in available
Willie Mae's Scotch House fried chicken is the best I've had.....expect a line
Ideal Market on Broad has an extensive prepared food hot bar of Mexican and South American foods.
Thursday from 3-7 there is a local farmers market that has prepared food as well as seasonal raw products including SEAFOOD!! Clara and Pete's booth had fresh crab, wild catfish and other very fresh local fish....
on my visit Ponchatoula strawberries, sweet spring carrots were special treats ...if Leo's bakery is there the citrus poppyseed olive oil cake is phenomenal ( and their croissants. pizza, etc).
There were several homeless men camping out on doorsteps of buildings with in a few blocks. As a woman alone I felt secure walking during the daylight.....after dark I used Lyft or Uber.
