The room is exactly as pictured, and was overall a lovely place to stay for our trip to New Orleans. Everything was clean, the bed was comfortable, and we appreciated having all the towels we needed and a mini fridge.
I felt a little bit misled by the claim that it was just a few blocks from the French Quarter--it might technically be about that distance from the edge of that area, but to get to Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, and many of the other French Quarter locations we were hoping to visit, it was a lot closer to a mile walk. Still doable, but a bit of a workout if you're doing it there and back for a few days. It's a lot more pleasant during the day when you can cut through Louis Armstrong park. Good walking shoes are a must if you plan to take advantage of the proximity to the French Quarter! Ubers were usually pretty quick to pick us up, and that was also a good way to get around from this location.
We didn't realize how close and nice Fatma's Cozy Corner was until our second to last day in the city, but it's just at the end of the block and run by really sweet people and a very sweet cat, named Cozy. Definitely a good stop for a quick breakfast or afternoon coffee.
Our host and co-host were very nice and very quick to respond to messages and provide recommendations for places to visit in the area. The room's walls are a bit thin, so we had one afternoon nap interrupted by a barking dog, and felt the need to keep our voices and the TV volume pretty low at all times. This wasn't really a big deal for us, but it's something to be aware of.
