I stayed in Beth's cottage with my wife and two toddlers over Mardi Gras weekend. What a great experience! It is nestled behind a double unit in the back courtyard which was so quiet we couldn't believe we were steps from the Quarter. The gardens in the patio were beautiful and gave us a great backdrop for pictures. Inside, the cottage was comfortable, clean, and well-appointed. It is nicely renovated, but maintains some traditional style which we enjoyed. The kitchen was perfect for morning coffee and king cake, though capable of much more (oven, etc.). The queen bed was super comfortable, the shower water hot, and the room spacious. Only downside was finding on-street parking (during Mardi Gras...), but we always succeeded. We have always wanted to get the "authentic" feel of FQ/Marigny living, not in hotels, which was fun to feel like a local, even for a few days. On our next trip to NOLA, this will be the first place we check!
