As other reviewers have commented the duplex is very clean, comfortable and welcoming from the minute you walk in the door. I had a couple questions after arriving and Lauren was quick to reply via message.
While we did hear a few trains it was mostly during the day.
We were there with our daughter for our son’s wedding and both the upstairs and downstairs beds were very comfortable with a variety of pillows (not always the case after 20 years of business travel).
We walked to the Quarter and other nearby locations during the day and took Lyft’s when returning at night but felt safe coming and going.
Lauren lists several nearby dining options on a white board.
Hanks Market two blocks away is an easy walk for the basics.
We found the Elysian at the Roche worth visiting (oysters, gumbo and crab cakes) and had dinner with our son and future daughter-in-law at The Franklin which we also highly recommend (meatballs with polenta were worth thinking about ordering more to bring home)
There are a number of coffee options within walking distance but check their hours as all aren’t open every day.
If you feel like a bit of a walk and are looking for beignets, walk down Rampart to Loretta’s. While staying there last year and a bit closer, we were there every day they were open.
Café Du Monde gets all the attention but give Loretta’s a try as well.
Would definitely recommend the Airbnb and plan to stay there again if/when we return to New Orleans.
