Where to begin! Christine & Nikita were very prompt to provide information upon booking and Were always just a message away. I do have to add one note about the location. Upon booking this stay, I knew we would be a little ways off the Quarter but close enough for a quick Uber ride. To be totally honest, the cab driver’s reaction to the address freaked me out a bit. What had we gotten ourselves into!? However, upon arriving I never once felt unsafe or like I was in a bad neighborhood. A few Uber drivers were still a bit surprised at the address when it was given but all in all it’s like any city - people’s perceptions don’t change even if the neighborhood has. My boyfriend and I walked to a local place to eat one afternoon and did not have any issues. The people we ran into were all very nice.
The house itself is wonderful! A code to get in the front door and another, different code to get into your room. 2 great and spacious bathrooms. Plenty of common spaces to relax. Coffee, tea and water all available. Full and big kitchen. We didn’t get to use the patio since it was so cold while we were there but it looked so nice!
Christine and Nikita checked in on us throughout our week stay and were always available if needed. We met the house keeper and he was great too. It really did feel like coming home after a long day and night in the Quarter!
My only suggestion would be to add mirrors in the rooms themselves. I felt like I was hogging the bathroom to do my hair and makeup every day. A full length mirror inside one of the closet doors would be perfect.
I highly recommend staying here and will absolutely check on availability for our next trip to the city that has my heart. Thank you for a wonderful vacation home.
