Annie’s place is very nice. Perhaps most important, it is exactly as described: there is such a thing as truth in advertising!
The neighborhood is quiet and residential, but it’s an easy walk or drive to nearby Uptown amenities (restaurants, shops).
Because of our schedule, we didn’t get a chance to meet Annie in person until the end of our week-long stay. However, her email replies were always prompt and answered all of our questions. And while a short conversation isn’t enough to determine a person’s full personality, when we finally got to talk to her toward the end of our stay, we found Annie to be smart, friendly and funny. (They say that when voting for president, people choose someone with whom they’d like to share a beer. In that case, I’d suggest Annie run for public office immediately!)
The only thing I haven’t seen mentioned in previous reviews is that sound does travel through the wood floors of Annie’s living space (which form the ceiling of the AirBnb unit) and through the exterior walls. This wasn’t a problem – my partner and I were (I think!) fairly quiet neighbors, as was Annie. The people in the homes next door were also very quiet, so all we heard were the sounds of daily life and conversation at normal hours. But we did hear them fairly clearly. (Which included some lovely acoustic guitar, one Saturday mid-morning — that was an unexpected treat! And for out-of-towners like us, it felt very New Orleans.)
