They have really thought of everything! We had a wonderful stay with Erik and Douglas at Zydeco House. We felt at home from the moment we walked in the door. The pictures represent everything perfectly and the space is larger than I imagined from the pictures as well. There were so many highlights and fav things I am not sure where to start...
For someone who travels a lot the attention to detail with this AirBNB constantly blew me away - the coffee maker with two different types of coffee - brewing a pot or making a keurig? With all the fixins? (I don't see that a lot and wish I did.) The welcome drinks and snacks that we dug into instantly. Shampoo, conditioner, things we forget and needed like a borrowed apple watch charger (Thanks Erik!) chargers at bedsides, luggage racks and nice dressers and hanging space for clothes in both rooms, washer/dryer, sunscreen and bug spray - it was all there for us! And then everything being labeled - lights, water filter, and such and having levels of lights - like mood / bright lights? So thoughtful. The pillows and beds are comfy - my partner is tough with beds and pillows and he woke up every morning proclaiming how well and comfortable he slept. They also include soft and thick towels - for showering and a separate nice set for the pool. Having the two rooms and two living areas gave us nice space to spread out and worked wonderfully when someone wanted to sleep a little later. And when I needed to take some work zoom calls in the office (part of the back family room). Super fast high speed internet, wireless printer, desk and office chair? Hello! Was def a selling pt for me for the booking and helped me keep things at work on track while on vacation. We were in this space with our daughter who loved the bedroom off the back family room and having her own bathroom - this space is also perfect for 2 couples to have a lot of privacy as well.
The pool and the outdoor hang area are so beautiful and relaxing we didn't grill but did spend a couple hot sunny days resting in the pool and out of the heat - having to go po boys at the nice big outdoor table.... nice that the pool has a shallow and deep end to keep everyone happy and cool. Speaking of cool the AC and fans worked wonderfully which can be a challenge in NOLA.
Location wise the Zydeco House is really perfectly located - I was headed down to music shows and restaurants in the Warehouse District and it was literally a 9 min door to door ride. Great restaurants on magazine 12-15 mins? So easy.
There was street construction but aside from a bit of noise it didn't really effect us as we had the off street parking spot to use. There were small fans in each bedroom that provided great white noise along with the ceiling fan in the front bedroom that also helped.
I admit part of me wanted to keep this space a secret, all to ourselves, but I couldn't not share the love and joy of this great stay. Def keeping our fingers crossed that Erik and Douglas will give us first dibs on a stay during Jazzfest in 2023.
