The house was very lovely in many ways and a good match with the photos. The decor is very fitting for the NOLA area and the house has an air of history that was really fun to experience. Kitchen is nicely done given the age of the home and the cupboards are well stocked with things like cooking oil, pepper, etc so if you want to cook it isn't a major purchase to get some of those items.

Location is good but still a decent walk (~1.5 mile) to the French Quarter. Easy though to get down there by taking the street car on St. Charles a few streets over. VERY walkable area and good places to eat nearby.

However, it was very mis-leading to have it listed as 1.5 baths. A .5 bath implies that there is a small shower (v. a tub which is a full bathroom). In this home, there is ONE bathroom that has a shower (its within an old but pretty free standing tub) and that bathroom is INSIDE one of the bedrooms. If you have to go to the bathroom at night, for example, then you are walking through the room someone else is sleeping in. Also the door does not close or lock. If you close it you get locked in!

The other bathroom is just a toilet (and no vanity space to use as another place to get ready even) and it is down a long steep flight of stairs from the bedrooms. This made sharing the house with 4 people hard and not nearly as comfortable as we had planned.
