We never got a chance to meet Betsey in person, since she was
out of town when we arrived, but our B&B was freshly cleaned,
and even stocked with tea, coffee, and flowers. Matt and I flipped
a coin to see who got the bed and who slept on the futon-- both
of us were perfectly comfortable. We'd planned to use the bikes,
but never did since so much of the 'hood is within walking
distance (and we had the good fortune to arrive during some of
the most perfect weather I've ever seen in NOLA). The rooms
are very stylish, in an understated way, and have so much more
personality and sense of New Orleans than some anonymous
hotel room.

While we never got to meet Betsey, her husband made sure we
were taken care of-- we texted him as we were arriving and he
made sure we'd gotten in OK, and even checked in on us later
that evening to make sure we were having a good time and
didn't need anything.

The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, and the park across the
street is a wonderful place to have morning coffee. I especially
liked the soft ringing of the nearby church bells. Friendly, chatty
neighbors and a short walk to more great places to eat & drink
than you can shake a stick at. I'd happily stay here again-- hell,
I'd move in if I thought they'd let me...
