Beau and Claire were great hosts, always making sure we had what we needed when they saw us during our stay. The place is well kept and comfortable, which can easily be kept cool in the summer heat.
We took a lyft into town about half the time and walked the other half. Either way, take note that long trains frequently (and slowly) pass across St. Claude at Elysian. When staying here make sure to leave some extra time for transit as the trains perform their various maneuvers.
Overall a great stay- if you’re looking for something outside the typical
French Quarter experience this is a great option. Nearby places we enjoyed: Bachannal, Elizabeth’s, Nola boulder lounge (cute tiny place for climbing), this vegan soul food place, and St. Roch market (indoor food hall). Plus plenty more hidden gems we saw but didn’t have the time to visit. Thanks Beau and Claire!
