Richard and Margo's place is really fantastic. We were just a little anxious about parts of the neighbourhood at first when we were looking for the house, but once we got there and did some walking excursions we were fine. You quickly discover that all of New Orleans has it's "charms", and this neighbourhood does too! We did not drive anywhere, although I suggest if you want groceries to do that whilst on your way. The location is a short walk along Decatur to the French Quarter, which we did multiple times, day and night. The house itself is very clean, stylish and comfortable, beds are nice and appliances all in good working order. The bathroom is at one end of the house, meaning you must pass through bedroom 2 from bedroom 1. Not a big deal for families or close friends, though. The backyard oasis is very quaint and being able to park our vehicle there was much appreciated. Richard and Margo were responsive and courteous. Highly recommended!
