About Terry Merlenbach
I have lived in New Orleans for 30 years in the lovely Uptown area. I am now retired from the food and beverage and hotels industry. and I live next door to the apartment. I am available to make recommendations for leisure activities, restaurants, bars, theaters, tourist attractions and more. Additionally, you will find a detailed guest book in the apartment, which good inside info about all local attractions listed above.
Terry Merlenbach purchased this Condo in 1994
Why Terry Merlenbach chose East Riverside
This is one of the older, more established neighborhoods in the city, with a very low crime rate and close proximity to everything from owner-operated shops and restaurants, spas, coffee shops, hospitals, clinics, public transportation, universities, parks, the zoo, and so much more. I love this area because of the combination of residential privacy and commercial activity just a couple blocks away. It is also very easy to reach downtown and the French Quarter.
What makes this Condo unique
I chose this house because it has the unique ambiance of old New Orleans, with beautifully maintained hardwood floors, huge windows, sky-high ceilings and so much more. Guests get the true feeling of New Orleans living when they stay here.

Awesome
Absolutely loved it. Neighborhood was quite, Terry has been wonderful for any questions going all the way back to October when we booked. The quarter is just a street car ride away. THIS is the place we will be staying from now on. House was cute and comfortable with plenty of bathroom accessories. Was also some great snacks. Look forward to our next visit.
PERFECT AND IN THE MIDST!!
Yvonne and I loved this getaway. Located in a great neighborhood, close to everything, you can just amber your way down Magazine St. We have been to NOLA several tines and we enjoyed our stay at this charming condo.It has a great neighborhood feel. Not super big but perfect for us two. THE PLACE IS SPOTLESSLY clean.
Super Cute!
This little apartment was very very cute and very well kept. My sisters stayed here for a family wedding and they loved it. The hosts were incredibly nice and welcoming and provided numerous amenities with the space, including wine. The apartment is in a great location and has its own secure and private entrance. A great place to stay in Uptown NOLA!!
It was a pleasure to have "The Twins" stay at my place. They were here for their sister's wedding. They were respectful of the property and enjoyed many of the amenities that I provide for my guests such as mouthwash, blow dryer, coffee, tea, wine to name a few. They are welcome to come back and stay anytime they want.

Lovely Accommodation | Wonderful Hosts | Great Neighborhood
I can’t sing enough praise for our lovely hosts Terry and Rick. They took such good care of us during our Mardi Gras stay. Complete with libations and a King Cake on Fat Tuesday!
Upon our arrival we were greeted with warm hugs and a tour of our sweet home away from home. Newly renovated, Terry and Rick run a first rate property and their years of service in the hospitality industry shows. A great apartment, complete with a comfy bed, spacious bathroom, bright living room and fully functioning kitchenette, we had all the perks of a hotel, but better with so much more.
Conveniently located a block off Magazine Street in a quiet location, we were within walking distance to all sorts of shops, restaurants and bars. The Napoleon Street bus line and the St. Charles Streetcar were both only a short walk away, which made using public transportation a breeze and easy to access all the other districts of this wonderful city. Really, we were perfectly located in a central neighborhood that is a pleasure to walk in. Also, being just mere blocks from the parade route made it easy to come and go from the apartment to rejuvenate, drop off a load of beads, then run back out for more!
When it came to booking our swamp tour, Rick was wonderful and set the entire trip up for us. We didn’t have to do a thing, which is really greatly appreciated when you're on vacation.
So, if you’re looking for a lovely accommodation in a great neighborhood with wonderful hosts, you can’t get much better then this. We won’t forget our first visit to NOLA and wouldn’t think twice about staying with Terry and Rick again. They definitely made our stay memorable and we are very thankful they chose us as their 2017 Mardi Gras guests. Thank you Terry and Rick!

This property is located in a lovely residential neighborhood, very private, but just short walking distance from fabulous shopping and dining on Magazine Street. Also within short walking distance is the historic New Orleans Streetcar line which is a great way to see the city, and to reach the downtown and French Quarter areas. Ample parking is available directly in front of the property. The property is secured outdoors by a locked gate. The neighborhood is safe, well lighted and easily accessible. Tulane University, Loyola University Audubon Park and the renowned New Orleans Audubon Zoo are all located in this area. Also located in this area are a variety of great restaurants from casual po-boy shops to fine dining.
