I had a wonderful Mardi Gras stay at Jacob's lovely "shotgun" historical home! The location was amazing - next door to Parasol's (get the shrimp, fully dressed Po' Boy!) and just off of Magazine and close by to St. Charles for all the parades. Walking distance to everything, which is a needed blessing during Mardi Gras! The home is welcoming and cozy - I greatly prefer an Airbnb to a hotel, especially during crowded holidays. It was a wonderful private respite to come home to. And I took advantage of the location and really ate my way up and down Magazine Street, and enjoyed walked around the Garden District with all the lovely homes.
Bonus: Jacob has a chef friend who provide delicious cookies on the welcome. They were amazing! And he couldn't have been kinder or more accommodating when I accidentally left my hairdryer behind - he dropped it off at my next lodging. A charming, communicative, conscientious host. I would be delighted to stay again!
