The house is beautifully decorated with large windows and wood floors. There are fun little shopping and eating areas nearby on Maple and Freret that are within walking distance. We enjoyed walking around the university and Audubon park to check out the architecture and housing styles. Downtown and the French Quarter were a 10-15 minute drive during light traffic.
John was great with communication and gave us great reviews on where to eat/drink/enjoy NOLA like a local.
One thing to mention is that the house is located directly on a busy-ish street which can be a bit noisy; if you are a light sleeper make sure to pack your earplugs:) Otherwise- wonderful place for a group or family to stay!
