What a nice place, and a great NO neighborhood. This is the kind of home I always look for an Airbnb - it truly is a home. The space is artful and comfortable and functional, too. There’s plenty of cozy seating and a sense of space. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook your own meals. That’s important to us - who wants to bring spices on a trip? We also were glad that it had a laundry room.
It was my first time staying in a shotgun house and we thought that was very interesting. The bedrooms are separated by the kitchen so for the most part do you have a good sense of privacy. However you need to be comfortable with the fact that the person in the back bedroom needs to cut through the front bedroom to get to the bathroom. That was fine by us, although it could be awkward if you’re very concerned with privacy.
So many great places to go right in the neighborhood. Second line brewery right around the corner has some great beers. The Asian fusion MoPho around the corner was fantastic. We went to the park almost every day and you really shouldn’t miss the sculpture garden there. All within walking distance!
Thanks, Manoli, you were a great host.
