Beautiful space, lots of natural light, and very comfortable.
The accommodations were lovely. Plenty of hot water for showers, comfortable beds, and a well-equipped kitchen.
I’d been to St. Roche in 2018 so I knew what to expect of the neighborhood. It’s up-and-coming with some beautifully restored homes, and a few pockets of less desirable ambiance. There are great neighborhood restaurants and bars within walking distance, especially if you’re of the vegan/vegetarian persuasion. I liked that it was a real place in a real neighborhood where mostly locals live.
Though, I should warn, there is a rooster. I don’t know where it actually lives, but I spotted it walking freely around the neighborhood on several occasions. I’ve lived near roosters before and they usually crow all day long, not just in the morning. This one seems to move through the neighborhood and only come to crow at the rear of the house at the crack of dawn. Every night/early morning at 5:00am-ish the rooster came by to crow. Luckily it moved on and I was able to go back to sleep, but I guess it’s something to consider if you’re a light sleeper/have trouble going back to sleep in the morning.
