Situated on St. Charles Avenue, this classic New Orleans home was the prefect location for visiting our family that live just three blocks down on the same street. The street car is conveniently located, just steps away from the front door that will take you right to the French Quarter. Walking distance is the beautiful Garden District with a self-guided tour of historic homes and dozens of restaurants, coffee places, boutiques and galleries. Our room, named "D Best Balcony," feels like a treehouse up in the majestic oaks and overlooks Saint Charles Ave. for prime viewing of the parade...if you are there for that.
Miss Paula was very accommodating when we asked for some more hangers, a roll of toilet paper and to work on the toilet that kept running, or the broken lock on our door. The bed was very comfortable with soft sheets. The high windows and the antique armoire fit the New Orleans charm.
Our standards are a bit higher in regards to cleanliness and sparkling new when it comes to bathrooms or kitchens, but was clean enough that we felt comfortable walking barefoot in the room. The entry and hall are in need of some good cleaning and new-- or maybe NO carpet as it was quite musty smelling. But the room did not have that smell.
We did run the window unit AC and fan the entire time, because it was summer.....so that was really nice! We had a wonderful time in New Orleans.
