Good find and great for the price. Happy we found it for our anniversary weekend getaway.
Very charming little private place above the owners home whom we never saw after check-in but were readily available in case we needed them. Mike checked in on us via text during our stay.
Decor was updated without losing it’s antique quality - just as beautiful as the pictures. The details were impressive. The yard was peaceful and beautiful to look at while we relaxed on the second story patio. Pool not for guests but we didn’t want or need it anyway. The entry is a narrow staircase on the back of the house which was fine for us. They keep a thick three ring notebook where they organized all the information we might need and more . It was a really nice and personal touch.
Safety on property - totally safe and private. No concerns.
Safety while walking on sidewalks to and from - we didn’t have an issue personally, but I would recommend to be mindful tourists and exercise caution. Don’t make yourself a target, remain alert, stay off your phone while walking, etc.
Walk - It’s a bit of a walk to get to and from the heart of things if you are planning on spending time in the French Quarter. We are in decent shape and I was a little sore by day 3. We could have used the provided bikes but didn’t. We also could have taken taxis, the bus and/or driven our car but we chose to walk because we are able. Just giving you an idea that if you’re in decent shape and can walk all weekend this is a great place for that. If you’re out of shape, the walking all weekend may be a challenge so be ready to choose an alternative for getting around. The host was so awesome that he saved a street parking space in front of his house for us for all four days. We parked our car there and didn’t move it until we left. Also, the sidewalks are in New Orleans are in bad shape so watch your step. We saw two people fall down!
Air condition - worked perfect. Also an awesome ceiling fan above the bed.
Keurig - yay!
Snacks - ate them all, thanks Mike & Kiki!
Towels/sheets - 100% quality
Bed - comfy!
Noise - I did notice regular NOLA noise like a party bus route driving by late but it wasn’t bad and we were so worn out every night that we slept through it. We weren’t even sure what time it ended.
Overall totally satisfied and would come again! A stay like this is why we prefer AirBnb over a hotel.
