The place is just a gem. We found it on such short notice and we were about ready to head back because our first (unrelated) accommodation was absolutely wretched. Not ready to give up on my birthday trip we found this place. It’s true New Orleans charm. The paint on the walls is perfectly distressed in the right way and not from lack of care. Location and parking were a breeze and the air quality was incredible too, I think he has a dehumidifier (awesome!). He gave some great suggestions for dining and answered all messages within the hour at most. Alan’s place is a great place. Wi-Fi was flawless. The courtyard is timeless, actually the whole house seems to still be in the late 1800’s and that is just magic. Bath products were great towels were super fluffy and Turkish. Pool table plays great. Not a lot of noise but you can hear second lines go by (bonus for us). He even has a fully stocked bar (we brought our own but beautiful to see). The kitchen equipment was very high quality as were the normal oils and simple staples you’d expect in your own home. Love his washer/dryer combo- told my husband we need to get one for our lake house. You won’t regret staying here. I hope it’s available our next time back. Thank you again Alan. You made us feel the NOLA love again!Laissez les bons temps rouler!
