Neil and Nancy are incredible hosts. They met us at the front door with wide smiles and welcoming arms, brought us in, and immediately offered us cold beverages. After that, they gave us a quick tour of their beautiful property, explained how everything worked, gave us a key to the place and to the bicycle lock, and then left us to our own devices so as not to be intrusive. Before they went up to their apartment though, they made it very clear that they were available to us at any time if we needed help, recommendations for places to eat, or just wanted to hang out. Our room was gorgeous, with even more privacy than we expected. We also really enjoyed using the two comfy cruiser bicycles that they have on offer for guests; that was definitely the best way to get around and see the sights of New Orleans!
The highlight of our trip wasn’t directly related to the room. My fiancé and I recently got engaged, and we had talked about doing an engagement shoot in New Orleans during our vacation. We reached out to Neil in advance to see if he could arrange something since he’s a professional photographer, and he was happy to oblige. He put together a very reasonably priced package for us, and what followed was a whirlwind tour of some of the most beautiful parts of the city, and produced the most incredible pictures of us together.
All in all, we had an incredible stay, and we can’t thank Neil and Nancy enough for their hospitality (and the pictures). Any time we return to New Orleans, we will definitely stay here.
