This is one of those RARE opportunities where one might be tempted to not gush too much lest a hidden gem like this gets too popular. However we wish our hosts nothing less than success, so here goes:
This apartment and its host are simply outstanding. The apartment itself is absolutely lovely, with high ceilings and cool decor, making it an oasis to return to as a homebase. Well-stocked, easy and logical access, modern design hidden within an architectural classic, we were able to immediately feel at home when we arrived.
The location is unparalleled for a leisure time stay. Far from the madding crowd, this a delightful neighborhood to stay in, with easy access to services, including one of the best bakery/cafes in the city and a Whole Foods within a comfortable walking distance.
We brought a car and there was ample safe street parking always available...we never walked more than a block to our car. If you’re focus is not on the French Quarter, you’ll love the freedom to zip around town from this central location.
Our hosts were attentive with apropos communications and always responded to our queries within seconds.
We are frequent visitors to New Orleans and have been visiting the city together for over 20 years. In that time we have stayed at some New Orleans’ finest hotels and B&B’s, but staying here at “perseverance” was our favorite to date. We felt like we were living in New Orleans rather than just visiting.
Kudos to our hosts, we can’t wait to return!
