We were only a hop and a skip off from catching the trolly on Canal Street. We enjoyed the front porch and people watching. There was a table in the back yard, but because of rain we didn't use it much. We had plenty of beds. There were no wash clothes available for the 8 of us, but Jamie was kind enough to let us go in the owners closet to grab some. There was a concern for a musty/mildew smell but saw no visible signs. Our family enjoyed our time in New Orleans.
