The Mistress is a perfect location for exploring New Orleans! We were welcomed by a personalized message and loved the décor reflecting the spirit of the city. Although our stay was short, we were able to sample the Garden District's shopping and restaurants, as well as all the wonderful sights within walking distance. We Uber'ed to the French Quarter and were able to catch some great music on Frenchman's Street. The porch was especially nice for surveying the colorful St. Charles neighborhood and characters, and we could imagine it would be perfect for watching parades during the season. The host's information and videos on the city were helpful in planning our agenda for sightseeing, and the comfortable beds were just what we needed to recuperate from the August heat. Thanks for hosting us!
