The Mansion is exactly as advertised. What the pictures don't quite capture is how historic the home and neighborhood is. Paula has gone through great lengths to preserve the antebellum feel of the house through the furniture and decor. I feel like we got an extra-special New Orleans experience by staying here. Beautiful private balcony that faces the oldest, running streetcar line in North America. The stop is literally 20ft from the door and is probably an under 20 minute, direct ride to the French Quarter @ $1.25 per trip (exact change not necessary).
