The shotgun style, very typical of New Orleans, requires a very close group of travelers. There’s no way to really have a private bedroom in this style of architecture. It was fine for our group of friends but it’s not my favorite way to sleep. The other sleep related trouble here is how loud the street traffic is and the roosters. Neither of which are a reflection of Wanda or the house, but something that really needs some earplugs for a solid rest.
The neighborhood is on the fringe and there’s pockets that I wouldn’t want to wander after dark, but I appreciated the short walk to Satsuma and The Country Club. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of coffee, water and toiletries available, and extra towels, too. Overall, it was enough and I’m glad to have had the weekend. Wanda was great, communicative and easy to work with.
