We stayed in Alice and Austin's house for a week and would definitely recommend it. We were able to easily communicate with Austin before he welcomed us at the house when we arrived from the airport. The house is a shotgun style house with a nice backyard/garden area. It was easy to make it "home" for the week, with its character, charm, and coziness. The house had everything we needed and is in a safe, quiet neighborhood. It's conveniently located near the end of the Canal St. streetcar line (which we used a lot), the art museum, bars and restaurants, grocery stores, and a coffee shop. We walked to a festival at the nearby Bayou, which was awesome. Great hosts, house, and neighborhood and would stay here again.
