We had a wonderful time staying at Kathleen's "cottage". We loved the location in Mid City. It was a very short walk to the canal streetcar, several places to eat and Bull Dogs Pub (which gives out free pint glasses every Wednesday). City Park and Morning Call (open 24 hours a day) are about .5 miles away. There are great places to eat and shop within 2 miles. We also felt very safe in the neighborhood. And taking the street car, the french quarter is literally 10 minutes away.
The classic shotgun house, was just as pictured and felt very spacious with 12 foot ceiling and a fan in every room. The home was super clean and had new bedding and tons of towels. The kitchen was very well equipped down to having a garlic press!
Kathleen, our host and a native New Orleans, could not have been nicer and was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us great advice about things do do, places to see, and great places to eat that the usually only the locals know about. She even had a bottle of wine waiting for us to help celebrate our anniversary. Our stay here was one of the memorable and fun trips we have taken due to both the acommodations and our wonderful host, Kathleen.
