We like the 19th Century, and this was an easy journey back to a time when craftsmanship mattered and elegance was expected. The look and feel of the mansion was like stepping through a window in time, and while that means there are certain modern amenities that aren’t there, all the essential ones are.
Preparing food was a challenge because the city prohibits ovens and ranges, but the hot pot and microwave offered workarounds for anyone imaginative.
The full size fridge was stocked with juice and milk, the coffeemaker was convenient, and the choice of coffee, tea, and snacks was more than sufficient (and more than we expected).
All our inquiries were answered in minutes, offering more information than we realized would be useful; a genuine benefit.
We were ready to move in and, if we can anticipate New Orleans weather more accurately in the future (March is supposed to be cool… and the temperatures were in the eighties for the entire week), we’d eagerly book the mansion again.
