If you are looking for a relaxing, comfortable place to rest while you explore New Orleans, this is your place! There are 2 bedrooms, each having a queen size bed. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped and the entire place was very clean. The MOST enjoyable aspect for us was the balcony and the refreshing breeze that seemed to be a constant. We ate dinner almost every night on the balcony, enjoying the sunset and the neighborhood. The neighborhood was quiet, but still active. It was somewhat of a throwback to see people out relaxing on their balconies, kids playing in their yards, and neighbors enjoying each other's company. I went for daily walks and the neighborhood seemed safe and friendly.
Proximity to just about everything is also a plus. Walmart is 10 min away for groceries or other necessities. There are also 2 grocery stores 10-15 min away. The city of New Orleans is also close by and Uber is readily available. Lastly, there are restaurants within walking distance. Just down Freret St. you will find the High Hat Cafe. GREAT FOOD!
The owners were living downstairs and they were both very friendly as well as helpful.
Things to consider: There are stairs, as mentioned in the listing, that you must climb for entry. We were all 55+ and had no issues with that. There is also a 3rd bedroom with a King Bed and Master bath. This bedroom is locked off from this rental and has it's own exterior door for entry. It may or may not be rented. It was not rented when we stayed but it is self contained so it would not be an issue if it was rented.
We looked at a LOT of AirBnb options before booking this trip and we could not have made a better choice. Highly recommend this place if you plan on visiting New Orleans and want a comfortable open place to stay, in a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to get in and out of the city quickly and easily.
