The house was perfect for our group and the Bywater neighborhood is amazing. The porch is the perfect place to lounge and the house is comfy and quiet. We hoofed it to Frenchman and the Quarter but it is a fair way to walk. Lyfts are easy to come by if need be. Markey's is amazing for cocktails, Satsuma's for coffee and simple breakfast. Also in the hood and excellent: The Country Club, great food and $15 to use the pool and hot tub. Cake Cafe for amazing brunch and lunch. Horn's is epic all around. Mardi Gras Zone is a 24 hour market with a surprisingly big variety of food and oddities.
One thing to be super aware of, the neighborhood is quickly changing but air bnb isn't the most welcome addition. Be aware that you're staying in a vibrant community, be friendly, kind and respectful of the locals. Everyone was so insanely welcoming to us. But we saw a lot of tourists acting like assholes which made us sad to be part of the air bnb problem. All around would totally stay here again. Great size and perfect location for us.
