I loved this place! Very well appointed, super comfy sofa and bed, plus the patio privacy was wonderful. This trip was a quite retreat for me, a mom who hasn't had a moment of peace and quite since having kids. The gated access and security system made me feel safe while being alone and the house itself muffles a lot of the outside noise which is really only local daytime construction and passing traffic/trains. The hosts were quick to respond and very helpful. The location is a few blocks from Magazine street, a popular shopping destination, plus centrally located to Audubon Park, the Garden District and the French Quarter. I rented a bike for the duration of my stay and was able to keep it safe behind the gated entry and easily bike the mile or 2 to wherever I wanted to be while enjoying the beautiful historic homes en route.
