The Mistress apartment is an ideal location for tourists as it's off the St Charles streetcar line. It made it easy to get to French Quarter and it was a relief to just walk down the block for dinner and drinks at night. Lauren's house manual provided menus, etc for guidance. We ate at Houston's, about two blocks away, and it was delicious!
About the apartment: Be aware that the second bedroom picks up a lot of street noise-- talking, trolley horn, etc. into the night. Lauren provided earbuds and sound machine, so if you're okay with that or are a deep sleeper, you'll be fine. I stayed in the master bedroom in the back of the apartment and heard nothing.
The apartment is super cute and spacious and clean. It looks just like the photos on the site. It's a walk up with a narrow staircase with secure, private entry. My mom, sister, boyfriend and I stayed there one night during the week and it was great for our needs. We drove and were able to park for free about a block away on the street. Metered parking out front, which the meter maids watch.
We didn't get a chance to meet Lauren, but she was quick to respond via phone call when we had a question after check in.
I recommend this Airbnb site and would stay here again.
