What an incredible experience!!! This home is absolutely beautiful inside and out! Gorgeous wood floors and high ceilings and something beautiful and wondrous to catch your eye around every corner!
My boyfriend and I stayed in the lovely green room with an amazingly beautiful antique wood bed with a featherbed mattress! It was like sleeping on a cloud! So comfortable! And our beautiful blue bathroom with an antique claw foot tub and chandelier was divine! I felt like a Queen in this room! We were so comfortable that we actually went to bed before 9pm one night, which is a shock for me given my deep love and excitement for this city. It's usually hard for me to sleep in New Orleans because I always want to be out doing something! This incredible room was about the only thing that could keep me from more exploring!
All of the little touches were so appreciated! Purified water waiting for us when we arrived, wine glasses to use and scents in the bathroom matched to my liking. And I loved the coffee and beverage center (pop and water) available for guests!
The only thing that topped all of this beauty was Georgia herself, what a warm and giving spirit! She greeted me with a hug and I felt right at home!
The location of the house is perfect! A nice cafe across the street and only a few blocks from countless restaurants, coffee houses and shopping. Magazine Street is a nice change from The French Quarter, still filled with dining and entertainment options and beautiful homes and architecture, but much more relaxed than the Quarter. The Magazine, #11, bus line runs all along Magazine and will take you to the Quarter, (stops at Canal, the edge of the Quarter) and back. There's a RTA bus stop at the end of the block so if you ask the bus driver, they will stop there when returning home after a long day of exploring. We used the buses the whole time to get around, very easy and affordable, only $1.25. (Have exact change ready).
I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience, except that you should definitely try it out yourselves! I'll most definitely be returning! Thank you Georgia!!!
