Staying here was key to a great all-around experience in NOLA. First of all, the Carriagehouse has such a unique feel and character, unlike anything else. Everything felt very cozy and charming, a great base of operations. The bed was soft, the A/C got the entire place cool, the shower was inviting and the kitchen had all the basics. The apartment was at the back of the building, so everything felt secluded and quiet, nice for those looking for a place to relax at the end of their adventures. There was a card laying out helpful information like the nearest cafes, and we put it to good use - a beautiful walk a couple blocks over. If there were any drawbacks, I'd say that it would have been nice to have some curtain hooks in the bedroom to pull the curtains back and let light in there, and at night, those same curtains didn't quite block out the light from the walkway, which was kind of perfectly place to shed light where you're trying to sleep - it would have been great to be able to turn that light off. Still, it says something that I asked Stephen about this and he was prompt in saying that while he'd prefer it on, he was okay with us unscrewing it for the evening (we didn't and it wasn't that bad). Stephen also suggested we ditch the rental car in favor of Uber/Lyft which turned out to be a great decision, also cementing how useful and available he was by text/Airbnb messaging. Overall, everything worked out perfectly.
