We came to New Orleans for our first Mardi Gras and had a lovely stay at Collete's place. Communication was great, we had entry instruction & wifi password well before arrival, and Colette was quick to respond via phone or text throughout our stay if we needed anything. The place was clean and comfortable. Colette was an attentive host & had set out some Mardi Gras items out for us, had local magazines with event listings. The place is located in a quiet area a block from Tulane U. There is a coffee shop on campus a few blocks away. There is a Streetcar stop at St. Charles & Calhoun about a mile down the street.
Overall, a very nice & convenient place to stay, and the host is full of local tips. Highly recommend.
