Kristen's guesthouse was lovely and it had everything we needed for our stay. It's obvious that Kristen cares about the little touches. The fridge was stocked with beverages and there was a basket full of fruit and snacks. The radio was tuned to the local jazz station, and you can open up the doors and listen in the courtyard while enjoying your breakfast or a glass of wine in the evening.

The room looks just like the photos and the courtyard is even more beautiful in-person. The orange trees were blossoming during our stay and wafted a sweet aroma into the air. There are 2 cats that roam the courtyard and the little one is rather playful and would chase butterflies.

Kristen was available when we needed and offered up suggestions about what was going on in town. She pointed us to block party on St. Patrick's Day that was a short walk down the road. She's also a great resource if you want advice on where to eat.

You can't beat the location. The area is filled with historic homes and it's right off of the street car line. Even though we had a vehicle, we often walked most places.

The only minor inconvenience we had was that the bathroom is a bit tight and it's a little difficult to sit on the toilet. If you're someone that's larger or that has accessibility needs, the bathroom may prove challenging.

Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would love to book the room again when we return to New Orleans.
