Stylish quintessential New Orleans “Shotgun” house (with porch) set on a main but leafy boulevard. Historic furniture and a Mardi Gras theme. Street car line immediately outside – a must for a certain kind of unique cultural experience. Exactly what you want for a first visit by two middle aged but hell raising Brits!
Quite a distance from central New Orleans but there are some great nearby facilities including a recognised and great music venue. Moreover these seem to be more patronised by locals and so there is very much a “real” feel to them.
The property is let down a bit as it looks a bit shabby – it really needs a jolly good clean and a lick of paint (a bit like our house 😊). However this did not mar our stay in any way – you don’t spend too much time “at home” on a four day visit to the Big Easy.
Communication on the basics could not be faulted although a request regarding local restaurants and nite spots was met with a rather generic reply.
Having said all that I would probably stay there again.
