This is an absolutely amazing location. If you are going to do New Orleans for real, it is right where you want to be.
The house is as advertised. It's beautiful and old. So it predates electricity and central heating and electricity. It also doesn't have a kitchen.
So there are only a few electrical outlets and you have to manually light a few gas furnaces.
I doubt you could find anything in this neighborhood that didn't have those limitations. And if they are really a problem, it's probably because you aren't doing New Orleans right.
If you want to get an authentic trip, go here.
