About this property

Modern Marvel 2 blocks from French Quarter & Frenchmen

The Apartment is located in the picturesque Marigny Triangle, 2 blocks from the French Quarter, 1 block from Frenchmen St., and 2 blocks from the streetcar. The building was recently converted from a warehouse used to make Mardi Gras floats into a modern marvel by its Architect owners. It features private parking, a private patio, a community courtyard, security cameras, keypad locks, 13-foot ceilings, hotel-brand mattresses & multiple coffee makers.

One parking spot in our driveway is available only for cars of a specific size (see House Rules for parking details and more). If your car does not fit, there should be plenty of street parking with a permit we can offer but must be coordinated before arrival.

Apartment 101 (on the first floor) is 1,300 SF of unique, modern space that includes high ceilings and a spacious living room with a wall-mounted, smart TV and Daybed, an open concept kitchen fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, and a dining table with seating for six. Master bedroom with new King size bed and smart TV, a 2nd separate bedroom with a Queen-sized bed and smart TV, and 2 full bathrooms. The 2 bedrooms are completely private, accessed from a hallway and not through other bedrooms like many houses in NOLA! A beautiful, private patio with string lights overhead makes it a quaint space to relax.

We, the hosts, are husband (from Louisiana) and wife (from Puerto Rico), Architects who designed, built, and live at our property in which we rent out 3 STR units. In 2021 we were awarded by AirB&B "The Most Hospitable Hosts in Louisiana", as determined by guest reviews over 1 year, and given to only one host in each state. We truly enjoy welcoming guests and sharing our special home, and we will do our best to make sure our guests have a memorable stay.

If you need more rooms, you can also check out our other listing in the same property at https://www.vrbo.com/2261094 or for additional information feel free to visit our 1919 Burgundy Suites Facebo*ok page. The Owners live in the building and can answer any questions.

The hosts were proactive with communication and were invested in our having a comfortable stay. The location is excellent, within walking distance to jazz clubs on Frenchmen St, the French Quarter and the French Market. The unit was clean, well stocked and felt secure with a locked courtyard. My only suggestion is that it could use some artwork on the walls. It has a stark and industrial feel.

Modern Marvel was fantastic. The location was perfect! We could walk everywhere we wanted to go and there are so many wonderful restaurants and of course the French Quarter. The nightlife on Frenchmen St is a short walk away. The airB&B is beautiful. The beds were really comfortable and the amenities plentiful. We would definitely stay there whenever we return to New Orleans!

We had a great stay (family with two teens). The home was clean, comfortable, with thoughtful amenities. Location was perfect - we walked a lot - the French quarter and Frenchmen street both easily reached from the home. We also walked to the street car. The hosts were helpful with tips and making sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.
