Kate and Robert’s place is amazing. A perfect spot for us to spend a quiet, relaxing weekend before the Christmas holidays.
From the moment we walked through the door we felt like we were home. Tastefully decorated, full of charm and character, amazingly comfortable bed and linens, hot shower with great water pressure and very very quiet which is often times hard to find in the Big Easy. What’s more, a bottle of wine to greet us, snacks laid out to get us started and plenty of coffee for several mornings. The welcome book is also chock full of really good food recommendations so pay attention. You’ll only find the best usual suspects, and others you’d never find unless you’re part of the community.
The neighborhood is great and our first time in the Marigny. Don’t think I’d stay in any other neighborhood in New Orleans now that I’ve explored that side of the tracks. Local corner bars with actual locals, great food options and cafes, beautiful homes and a perfect blend of urban buzz and residential.
Parking was a breeze right out front and we never looked for a spot. Most say to never rent a car in New Orleans and I wouldn’t during any holidays, parade periods or in the French Quarter. But hands down our best decision as we saw so many of the surrounding neighborhoods and tucked away gems and were able to always find easy parking on the street.
Great communication pre, during and post - checking in only to make sure we had everything we needed and always a call away.
Book it - please just not for the dates I want to go back :)
