My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Patricks home, and in addition to the lovely antique bed, and furnishings, Patrick's willingness to share his extensive knowledge of New Orleans, it's history, and hidden jewels, was most helpful. There are actually 4 beds and a very comfortable coach and the place seems accommodating even for 3 couples.

As much as we loved New Orleans, I must say, we spent a lot of time on the porch, watching the world and streetcars go by. Be sure and walk across the street and enjoy a meal at one of new Orleans oldest neighborhood restaurants, a locals favorite, Mandinas. I loved the trout almandine, the gumbo, and the fried oysters are the best!

The neighborhood has, within walking distance or a very short drive, over 15 restaurants that are great for eating really good food, at non tourist prices.

And the location is perfect. You can simply hop on the streetcar, in front of the house, and be in the French quarter in 10 or so minutes, and never worry about parking or driving. City Park and the New Orleans Museum are a ten minute drive also, and the superdome is a short walk from a short streetcar ride, as well.

We will be back!

Thanks again Patrick, for all of your useful tips and helping us discover another New Orleans to add to the one we already love.
