The great: the space is truly better than the photos show. You are given three spacious rooms to utilize, including a full kitchen, and a very nice bathroom. In particular the pillows were stand outs, as were the options for shampoo and body wash. Really high quality stuff!
Also appreciated the small touches like chocolates, tea/coffee of all kinds, water bottles and a britta filter, and snacks available. The photos throughout the house also make it feel like a special space to stay in.
Lastly the neighborhood is awesome. I’d never been to mid city before but I’m so glad I stayed here instead of the downtown area. It has such charm, with each house and street having it’s own personality and design. Also right off canal and Carrollton, with streetcar access and some great restaurants. Was also very close to City Park and only a 10-15 minute Lyft ride from the Audobon park/uptown area which we loved.
Overall we really enjoyed our time here. We spent most of the day out and about so we were just there in the morning and night, but still, it was nice to be there.
One word of caution: if you are sensitive to sound/light sleeper, I do suggest bringing earplugs. While the area and apartment are quiet, the design has the space underneath the rest of the house, which means you can hear a bit of movement above you including in the bedroom. I’m a very light sleeper so most people probably won’t care but I did have to use them to sleep/not be woken up. It’s just the design of the house, there’s certainly no excessive noise or anything like that.
All in all, this is a fantastic space to stay in and Scott is a great host. He goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable and was easily available and flexible. I really enjoyed getting to meet him and share this space for 5 days.
