We knew we wanted to stay in the Marigny for all the fun and creative spirit of the area and location to Frenchman St. and the place I stayed last time was booked, thanfully because I am SO glad we ended up at Cheryl and Donnie's. Cheryl and Donnie could not have been more gracious hosts. They made us feel welcome before we even arrived with emails giving us all the info we needed. We could already tell we were going to love them and we definitely did! They even invited us up for their Mardi Gras party! The apartment is darling, much bigger than the pictures show. Probably between 800-900 sq ft. The queen bed has a pillow top and is so comfortable. The sleigh bed with the trundle under looked comfy with a big puffy comforter and lots of soft throw pillows. They have coffee and powered creamer in the cabinet to get you rolling and they are only 2 blocks to Mardi Gras Zone, the local grocery, so you can easily get alcohol, munchies and half and half etc. The view out of the kitchen to the patio, pool and zen garden is perfection and if it wasn't freezing out, I'm sure a dip in the pool would have been fantastic. There is no question I will be returning to see mama Cheryl soon. This was by far the best Airbnb experience I've had!
