Neil and Nancy were extremely gracious hosts, and full of wonderful suggestions for places to visit in the area. Neil met us at the door and gave a tour of the property, and sat with us in the courtyard to engage in a conversation regarding the history of the building, and of the city post-Katrina.
The river view balcony room was an architectural/historical gem, and was very basic in its furnishings. We were not looking for 24/7 room service or a plasma screen with HBO, and were very happy with the accommodations.
If/when we return to New Orleans, we will definitely look them up again for a room.
