We arrived Thursday morning for Mardi Gras weekend and it was pouring rain all day. I messaged them asking about an early check-in and they graciously allowed us to check in without an additional charge.
The property is conveniently located in a local neighborhood approximately 1/2 a mile from the French Quarter. During parade season it's a little bit difficult to catch the rail car when it's running which is about two blocks from the house on Canal Street, but it is easily walking distance
