Check-in was very easy and the house was as pictured. Pamela even left the heat on for us to prepare for our arrival in a record breaking cold snap, very thoughtful! The place was very clean! All of the linens had a fresh, pleasant smell and the beds were comfortable. Pamela provided more than enough blankets, towels and pillows which we sometimes find lacking in other rentals. Because of the extreme cold we were unable to use the front porch or backyard but both looked inviting to spend time on in warmer weather. The neighborhood is safe, as two women we felt comfortable walking there at night, and parking was always available either next to or in front of the house. Pamela was very responsive to all of our communications. Because the house is older it was a little drafty in the very cold, windy weather and Pamela stopped by to help us reduce the airflow into the house. This would not be a problem to anyone staying at any other time than extremely cold weather (wind chill was in the teens, which is not normal in NOLA). We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay with Pamela again.
