Jess and Jonathan's apartment/cottage is perfect in every way. It is immaculate, well equipped, beautifully designed and quite comfortable. It is only a few miles to the French Quarter, where parking is not bad. We always found a place right on the street, but there are tons of parking options when you get there. Being able to park in their driveway after a day or night out was a huge plus. They thought of everything down to the last detail when they planned their cottage and it is extremely safe. When you come in for the night you can even lock the gate on your own private alley way and outside seating area. It is a perfect place to stay while exploring New Orleans. We met Jonathan on check-in and he welcomed us. He said to contact him with any questions or needs but we never had any reason to. You will love to stay in their apartment while exploring NO.
