Catherine is an amazing host! My stay was in the master bedroom and it was exactly as expected. The restroom was beautiful as well! We were provided with all the amenities listed.
Catherine does mention that this location is just like a hostel, and we were totally okay with that. Our roommates for the weekend were very friendly and down to earth (running into them was neat being that we were able to talk about where we were from!) As noted - she asks that we talk on the phone in a specific room. From our room we could hear conversations and at times people in the kitchen. To be honest it wasn’t an issue for us because we were so tired from our day, we knocked-out and by the time we heard the other guest, we were up and getting ready for the day!
One thing that I really appreciated was Catherine’s hospitality. She went above and beyond to welcome myself, my boyfriend and one of our roomies that happened to fly in in the evening at the same time! It was wonderful to have a chat with her and I like that she took the time to give us dinner tips for the night. Make sure the check out her wall in the kitchen each day. I took photos of her suggestions that she lists for us with the name, and address. Also don’t forget to look over the whiteboard, Catherine updates it daily and it notes jazz spots and parades! This was so convenient because toward the end of the night we would look through the lists and hit up spots that we didn’t originally have planned to go to but was in the area!
Catherine made our 1st NOLA trip so worth it! I would totally recommend this stay and my boyfriend and I plan on coming back soon!
