Kristen is a very accommodating and thoughtful host. She was waiting to greet me when I arrived to check in. She very generously stocked the mini fridge with lovely snacks, drinks, and good quality coffee for in the morning. It was so peaceful and charming to start my day with a coffee in the beautiful courtyard. The location of the studio is premium. You are within walking distance of restaurants, old Garden District homes, and the trolley on St. Charles. Be aware you are staying in an 180 year old carriage house. If you are expecting a brand new building, this isn't for you. If you want a taste of true old New Orleans, you cannot ask for a nicer host than Kristen.
