The dog is a liar.
She's adorable and will follow you in. Don't let her. She'll lie and say that this is her house and you're the guest. Don't listen to her. Even if she sits outside the door with her big eyes. Sit on the porch and play with her. Toss the ball, she'll bring it right back. Repeat until your arm falls out because that's more likely to happen than this dog tiring out.
The space is beautiful, the perfect mix of old and new. It's comparable to an upscale boutique hotel in San Francisco. Tall ceilings, quirky chandeliers, thoughtful decorations.
The location is great, 2 block walk to some great coffee, another block and access to a ton of places for 'the locals.' Not much further and you're at the French Quarter. Maybe 1.5 miles to Cafe Du Monde and Jackson Square.
If you're coming for a convention, the convention center is less than a mile and you'll want that walk to work off all the delicious food you will be eating.
Holly is a very accommodating host. We were traveling with an infant and she had a pack and play ready for us to use. Extremely thoughtful, made our trip before we boarded the plane for the Big Easy.
