There were 6 of us on a 4-day weekend trip for Cinco de Mayo, JazzFest, and Mother's day. Being from NOLA, I felt at home, and it was larger than the pictures led us to believe, especially the kitchen.
It’s big enough to fit up to 8, but as Ms. Mary advertises, there are only 2 bedrooms which are truly private, 1 of which contains the bunkbeds, and one bed in the walking area between. Also as advertised, there is only 1 bathroom. If more than 6, you will want to bring an air mattress and maybe extra sheets/towels. None of the above were an issue with us, we were even expecting up to 8 in our party, but glad there were only 6; the single bathroom can become limiting quickly. No one in our party had any complaints about cleanliness, which is good.
We were grateful for the off-street parking with locked gate, and we were able to fit our 2 mid-size SUV's in the drive way, and in the front for short stops. But pulling out into the road is a challenge, so be careful. We felt safe in the neighborhood and had some nice conversations with the neighbors. You should expect to drive to places, but there are some cool restaurants and coffee shops that could be walked to if you don't mind a walk.
Ms. Mary was accommodating, responsive, and proactive with our check-in and sent a nice note the morning of our check-out.
This was a good find, between the price, size, off-street parking, general location, and of course Ms. Mary as a great host, it was worth the money.
