Couldn’t have asked for a better guest suite in NOLA. Visiting family here, and I know quite a few neighborhoods in New Orleans, but Algiers is truly a lost gem, and perhaps my new favorite spot in the city.
Place was perfect, very clean, spacious, and the location can’t be beat. Only a skip, hop and a ferry ride away from the east bank, with all the comforts of a nice community neighborhood and tranquility that can be hard to find in the city.
Easy walking distance from Algiers point/Old Algiers, and just a few blocks from the Mississippi River trail which is great for a morning run or an afternoon stroll. Nice coffee shop within walking distance, and while I didn’t get to experience a lot due to COVID, there were some other quaint bars and restaurants nearby. Rouses in Gretna is a straight shot 35 minute walk as well for quick grocery needs.
Place is great for solo/couple travelers and has plenty of room to work, or just sit back and relax. Coffeemaker, microwave and fridge make for the perfect amenities when you’ve got some leftovers that just need to be reheated or need your simple morning breakfast. Gorgeous porch and patio for enjoying a beer or glass of wine and watching the peaks of the barges stroll past you on the Mississippi at a distance.
This place could not be beat.
