I really enjoyed my week in town and staying at Bridgette and Belladonna’s place was, for me, an integral part of that experience. It is in a perfect location - situated in a great neighborhood and within walking distance to many of the other neighborhoods I wanted to explore. It was also incredibly easy to hop on public transit when I wanted to venture further out. When I did walk all the way from Marigny to uptown one day, and to the Worlds End on another, I was so glad to have streetcar and bus lines easily accessible to return me close to the front door. Aside from the many cafes and eateries in the neighborhood (I enjoyed Paladar 511 most) there are also two grocery stores within a block and a half in either direction. The bed was really comfortable as was a little sofa. All the spaces were very clean, including the bathrooms and kitchen. There is a full kitchen in terms of appliances, though it is sparsely stocked with pans and knives. If you are looking to do any real cooking, you’ll have to get creative. Though I would not discourage anyone from staying here for that reason. Absolutely use the ear plugs! (You’ll need them if you’re in room 3, which faces the busy main street.) Every single night the karaoke bar downstairs was overrun with happy youngsters. Though I really got a kick out of it, the ear plugs were absolutely essential to my getting a good sleep. When I wanted to visit the botanical garden on my last day, I was given permission to check out a little later, which I greatly appreciated.
