Melinda was a very gracious host. She was a great communicator and left detailed instructions for us upon arrival, which made it effortless. The location is great, about 20 mins to the French Quarter by car. While the house certainly served our needs, there were a few areas that didn't quite live up to expectation. The house smelled a bit of smoke and some of the drawers in the kitchen were not stable, one fell off when I opened it. Overall, communication and location were great. If you're looking for a stylish location, this may not be for you. However, it's a good house for the value.
