Host was very accommodating very kind. House was BEAUTIFUL with some minor fixes necessary in the upstairs bathroom. Beds were so comfortable no complaints. Outdoor areas of the house were fabulous for gathering. House is a little far from downtown area (maybe 20 minute drive or so) but the neighborhood was wonderful and we felt very comfortable and safe. We made lots or memories in this home and not one complaint except we needed more bathrooms! :-) We would go back here without question. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL STAY.

Hidden Gem

What a beauty!! 4 of my friends and I stayed in this Victorian gem for a few nights. More than enough room for us and a few more. Pictures are accurate. There’s a great little diner spot on the corner within walking distance. Easy to Uber to and from center of New Orleans. Would stay again!!Great communication with host.
