We really enjoyed our stay at Maison Marais! It was quiet, clean, well appointed and the bed was firm and comfortable (although I would recommend bringing additional pillows - there were only two small bed pillows for the two of us and I have a fussy neck). There was coffee, towels, hair dryer, everything we needed to get us out the door and ready to enjoy New Orleans. We biked everywhere and this was a great starting point to either head down to the French quarter or up to City Park. Our host kept in really good contact with us letting us know the check-in process and updating us with any information we needed! I would highly recommend this place. There's even a supermarket, coffee stop and a few small neighborhood bars nearby if you don't feel like walking more than 4 or 5 blocks.
