Katherine’s Airbnb is very a unique and stylishly decorated space, with really cool architectural features such as the vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and original brick wall. We were there for seven days and felt very comfortable and at home in the space—hooray for comfy beds! The space itself is very clean and quiet (located at the back of a building essentially in the backyard), and is a great respite from the chaos of the French Quarter.
It is located in the Bywater, which is a great little neighborhood with a creative and independent vibe, and many local restaurants and bars within in walking distance from the apartment (Bacchanal Fine Wine & Spirits, Parleaux Beer Lab, Satsuma, and Bywater Bakery to name just a few). Getting to the French Quarter is a quick and easy $8 Uber ride, but we highly recommend renting a blue bike and riding through Crescent Park (which gets to to the beginning of the French Market) instead.
Katherine, the host, was quick to respond to all of our messages. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Bywater and would definitely stay here again. With the addition of the pool in the fall, it would be hard to find a better place to stay in New Orleans!
