We had a lovely time at Bettina's Guesthouse. Communication with her was easy. Our flight arrived hours before check-in time and she let us drop off our bags and go explore while she cleaned. We really appreciated that. The space was clean and charming with everything you might need right at your fingertips. Bettina was super friendly and told us a bunch about the neighborhood and had some fun insider tips about things going on that weekend. Frenchmen Street and the French Quarter and both walkable. We rented bikes, which made everything super easy. New Orleans is really flat. We felt safe walking all over Bywater and enjoyed several of the local restaurants and coffee shops.

The only thing I'll mention just in case there are other light sleepers is that the house is a block away from the train tracks. During the day, on Friday, there were train horns going every half hour or so, but luckily that seems to lessen at night and we didn't notice them much on the weekend.

Thanks so much for everything Bettina! You're a great hostess and we really appreciate all that you did to make our trip easy and fun!
