Our stay at Erica’s Air B&B over the weekend prior to its culminating weekend and Fat Tuesday was simply delightful. Our room and the wonderfully supplied shared kitchen area were impeccably clean. Our bed was comfortable, the sheets were of a high thread count, and our room afforded us ample closet space. We had our own bathroom with many thoughtful amenities such as high-quality shampoo and towels. She even thought to keep out sunblock for her guests! Many others have mentioned her well-stocked beverage fridge with soda and water. She has everything for perfect tea and coffee.
As for location – amazing! We were able to park in her driveway. If you so choose access to public transportation is available; make sure, however, to download the app from the city of New Orleans, where $6 will provide unlimited bus passes, streetcars (when open), and ferry passes. It is a safe neighborhood, Erica’s backyard was gorgeous, and comfy chairs are provided on the front porch.
Too, Erica is generous with her time, resources, and knowledge of New Orleans. She is there for a resource but is respectful of your space and decision to interact or not. On one of our nights, we came back to Erica’s around 8 pm, when she was entertaining a friend. She introduced us to her friend, and we all ended up talking until past midnight. Eric is a compassionate and intelligent person who works hard to provide great experiences for others whether they are in her own community or for others, such as us, who are there for a short stay. This was truly an amazing experience. Thank you from both of us, Mark and Lori!
