Great stay for our group of 16 friends over New Year's Eve 2018. We liked that we were able to fit 16 people on real beds (we rented out the house's 7 rooms, plus the patio suite #13) and it was in a great location, about a 10 minute walk to Frenchmen Street and close to interesting spots in the FQ, Marigny and Bywater (make sure to check out St. Roch Market and Studio BE, both about a five minute walk). We liked the B&B charm of the place, with the attention to the art and furniture in each of the rooms.
Communication with the host Zak and his team was great, they were very responsive to our requests and any problems/requests during the stay. They dropped off a load of breakfast, snacks and drinks at check-in which were much appreciated. The mini-fridges in each room were also a plus for storing water and drinks.
There have been some changes to the house versus the pictures, with the little seating area under the stairs being changed into a kitchen area, with a full fridge and dining table. Our group liked grabbing drinks and snacks from there. There are two living rooms, each with one couch, and we generally stuck to one of the living rooms and pulled in additional chairs from around the house. The kitchens on the ground floor units have been demolished, with one turned into the #13 patio suite and the other under construction as of our stay (Dec 2017/Jan 2018).
The #13 unit can be accessed separately from the back patio or through a sliding door from unit 10 (the one with the folding screen in pics), so it attaches to the rest of the house which is nice. The room had a queen bed, kitchen area and bath. There's still construction on the opposite side of unit #9, and we had issues with the room getting too cold during the cold snap over NYE. (If you're renting during colder months, I'd recommend checking in with Zak on the status of that.) The upper floor units were nice and spacious, with rooms #11, #12 and #7 being the nicest of the house. The balconies were a fun plus.
Overall, the house is a great fit for a big group looking for easy access to the FQ.
