We stayed for the month of January in Maison Chartres 2109 to escape colder weather in the Western NC mountains and were very happy with the whole package. 2109 is your true NOLA dwelling—a 150+ year old triplex/shotgun style home with typical 12+ foot ceilings, pocket doors, and a cozy front porch. The apartment is spacious and well equipped for cooking most of our meals right there. We were able to arrange for groceries using a combination of delivery from Rouses Market and walking to Robert Fresh Market or a smaller Rouses on Rue Royal in the Quarter.
Being at the intersection of Chartres and Frenchmen meant we had music of many styles, access to some great restaurants, and a lively street scene at all hours. We witnessed a traditional ‘jazz funeral’ which proceeded past our porch. We watched a small wedding who marched at a happier pace. Heard and watched several ‘pop-up’ street corner bands.
We were able to get everywhere that we wanted to go using streetcars, city buses, and, of course, our own leg power. Always got friendly and useful assistance from the drivers.
Megan was very responsive and eager to make sure that our stay was comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend staying here for your NOLA adventure.
