Jackson was a great host. When we got to the place, there was a stack of information that proved really useful, like a map of the local attractions, what to do, etc. She was very responsive, and not at all intrusive.

The place itself was fantastic. Mind you, you have to not mind climbing stairs, but it was so charming. The first level is one story up, and is flooded with natural light. The front entrance overlooks her chicken coop, which was so cool. The bed is up this sturdy spiral staircase, and is just plain relaxing. There was a thunderstorm the second night we were there, and we watched it roll in from the balcony adjacent to the loft/bedroom. It was magical.

I absolutely plan to stay here next time I am traveling through New Orleans. It is only a 5 minute walk from the streetcar, and a 10-15 minute walk from Magazine street. We were able to sight-see the garden district and not once did we take our truck until it was time to leave!

Finally, I made sure to write a note in the traveler's log she leaves out. It was really cool to read about all the different people she had hosted.
