It was expected and unexpected. Expected because everything is written and communicated in great detail. When we arrived, everything already seemed so vaguely familiar. Unexpected because I had no idea it would feel so good. Every detail is thought through. There's fridge with beverages since the weather was so steamingly hot in NOLA. There were snacks. A great music record collection and interesting books to glance at. The tips about places to eat that the previous guests had left in the guests' book, the brochure that Grace and Reeves put together to make sure staying at their place is as smooth as possible, the location of the place itself, all of these little things together made us, strangers, feel at home in a new city and venture out to explore what NOLA offers. I wholeheartedly recommend this place. It's quiet, safe and feels just right.
