We had a great experience staying with Isobel and Hollis while in town to run the Rock and Roll marathon. They were very friendly and helpful and made us feel right at home in NOLA. Their house is well situated in the Mid City neighborhood close to many restaurants and stores. Downtown NOLA is a cable car ride away and it is easy to jump on I-10 to take in sights farther from the city.

The house itself is decorated in funkly NOLA style which adds to the experience. The house is older so don't expect a lot of modern conveniences. The shower is in a tub with a funky wrap around shower curtain. Heating and cooling is accomplished with several space heaters and a window mounted AC unit. The kitchen is a bit on the cramped side and there is no designated place to dine.

Don't let me give you the wrong idea. The house more than met our needs and we had a great experience staying there. Any cons I mentioned above are more than adequately compensated for by all of the good vibes the house has.

I would definitely stay here again when in NOLA.
