Let me start by saying that I could easily write more than 500 words about The Coop, (as it's called) but since the limit is enforced, I'd better get started! Our stay at Liz & David's was absolutely wonderful and my only wish is that we could've stayed longer. Liz was such a gracious host, leaving us with umbrellas when it started to rain, offering up any additional suggestions should we need them and even inviting us into their home to commiserate over bourbon during the last throws of the election results. The Coop was clean, spacious, full of sunlight during the day and had a great kitchen with everything you could need to whip yourself up something to eat (not that you would with all of the great dining there is in New Orleans!) Speaking of food, there were complimentary snacks, water and even beer when we arrived as well as coffee, that we enjoyed with a french press, each morning. The bed and pillows were SUPER comfortable as was the temperature of the space because there were a few units where you could easily control the heat or a/c at your pleasure. There were some ameneties in the bathroom, should you not come fully equipped, which was a really nice touch. There is a little guidebook that Liz created herself that I HIGHLY reccommend reading front to back a few times over again. It's got a ton of great suggestions that'd someone like me really appreaciates, especially if you're looking for a trip that's less touristy and more "as the locals do." The neighborhood felt safe and the house is only about 4 blocks from the main drag that is Magazine St. The French Quarter and other areas you may want to visit were about 10-15 minutes away by car and your Uber/cab ride is on average $6-$12. Liz was easy to get in touch with via text should you need anything or have questions.
I cannot recommend The Coop enough! Thanks again, Liz & David!!
