Heading down to New Orleans? Be sure to check availability at Christine & Nikita's. Lovely home and sharing bathroom with other guests not too bad (they have about 7 guest rooms). Just keep in mind that you may have to use Uber or Lyft to travel in and out between the house and Frenchman / Bourbon, etc. Especially during Mardi Gras as there will be road closures, heavy traffic and few parking spaces. (Public transport also OK during the day, but buses were often late.)
