Location is everything! The best music and fun we found was not in the French quarter but right around the corner right here in the Marigny! The cottage is just a few hundred feet from great food and fun, and a quick walk to the more historic and significant areas. The host was very friendly and helpful, and the cottage is quirky and fun; it's a shared house but you have your own private quarters and we never even heard anyone in other areas. Everything was sparkly clean and there were plenty of thoughtful add-ons such as sunscreen, a tea kettle, and umbrellas to take for the day. Overall we we're just thrilled with the place and had a blast. The location can't be beat!
