Melissa’s place was a cozy quiet respite from the Mardi Gras throngs. Great place to don costumes, lounge and recoup. Location in the Bywater was excellent for Mardi Gras. Start of the St Ann parade was nearby. The shotgun apartment was a great experience and was beautifully decorated. Claw foot tub!! Coffee provided in the shared kitchen with room in the fridge for guests items. Melissa was very responsive and it was easy sharing walls with her!
