Cassandra, you made our stay fabulous. Four friends-women. She added a bed and furnishings so we each could have our own room. I had just celebrated my birthday so Cassandra surprised us all with a great bottle of bubbly upon our arrival. We were so comfortable staying in the beautiful Irish Channel Home. Great location. Easy to walk to food/shopping on Magazine Street. Easy drive to the Quarter. The off street parking--an added bonus. Cassandra met us upon arrival with a helpful tour of the home (and the bubbly). She responded to my e-mail-text messages appropriately. She told us the fun/best places to visit and eat--the places where the locals gather. She is a host we wish we had a bit more time to get to know. Our morning coffee was spent on the front porch swing enjoying the birds singing. The evening's wine and snacks under the gazebo by the pool. Neighbors were helpful and friendly. From the home itself to the host and her friendly neighbors--this stay felt like home. It's my hope to return. Soon. Thank you Cassandra.
