Finding this little gem was a serious stroke of good luck! The site is exactly as promised - very clean, comfortable and beautiful. It's a three block walk to Magazine St where there are plenty of shops and restaurants. The #11 bus runs all the way downtown for only a $1.25. The room comes with a microwave and little fridge, but no cooking units. Patio is a lovely spot to enjoy your morning coffee - which you can make in the coffee pot she provides! I would absolutely recommend Darlene and her lovely cottage for your NOLA vacation. I will be back.
