Our host was very welcoming, and contacted us before and during our stay to insure that we had everything we needed. The apartment was clean and well furnished and the location is amazing if you want to experience New Orleans and the French Quarter without being too "touristic". There are a number of places to eat and have drinks within a short walk, including Port of Call -- home of the most amazing hamburgers in the world (as well as some pretty potent beverages). The French Quarter is 5 minutes away as is the Riverfront streetcar, which will take you to Canal Street and the Aquarium (or just to the other side of the Quarter if you are not up to walking it). I would definitely recommend to anyone.
I enjoyed the simple check-in and check-out processes as well as the response times from the hosts. The overall design and build of the dwelling was tasteful to my family and I. We would stay here again on our next visit.
Our stay was wonderful! Our host Irelis was so friendly and gave us great tips on where to go and what to see. Her breakfast recommendation was incredible. The location is perfect, far enough from the French Quarter tourism to be peaceful and a short walk to join the festivities. Three adults - we had plenty of room and enjoyed sunning on the deck as well.
Nice spot to stay, close to the action, street cars and Ruby Slipper a block away. the place is nicely appointed and communication with the owners was excellent. Recommend!
The property was beautiful, clean, comfortable. The host was so welcoming and thoughtful. Location was superb, within close walking distance of Bourbon Street but quiet after returning for the evening. Highly recommend and would stay here again!
House was very clean and tastefully decorated. Great communication with the property management. Close to all activities. Would recommended and definitely stay again.
Excellent trip and wonderful rental. Walkable to restaurants ( ruby slipper is excellent) and hosts very friendly. Felt safer there than at any of hotels that I might have stayed at.
Beyond being a lovely property and a fantastic reuse of a building, the location was central to all the districts we were interested in visiting. We walked almost everywhere! The neighborhood is classic, quiet and welcoming as well!
The house was exactly what the pictures show, beautiful home, clean, comfortable, and location was the best! Not too close to the loud noise but not too far to walk. Everything was within walking distance. Bourbon St, Fresh Market, and the French Quarter were all in walking distance. We will be visiting again and will definitely be staying here! Hostess communication was great. David was there if we ever needed anything or had a question on food or places to visit!
This location comfortably hosted 5 women for a long weekend. We had such a great time staying here, it’s close walking distance to everywhere or a quick Uber drive away! The condo was clean, quiet, had everything we needed with thorough instructions! Extra blankets and pillows, everything was well designed and thought out.
We’ve been to NOLA many times and each time we stay in a different neighborhood to immerse in the uniqueness and diversity of this beautiful place. This time we wanted to explore the Marigny triangle and Frenchman Street. This home was the perfect launching point! We loved the accessibility to nightlife, just 4 blocks away, the Quarter, and to all this bright neighborhood had to offer. Would book again without hesitation.
Thank you again for hosting us. The property is just as described. Conveniently, located to the French Quarter. The property was clean and well maintained. We loved the quiet neighborhood that was not far from everything we love about the French Quarter. The hosts were wonderful and accommodating. We made some great memories and would recommend this property to anyone who loves quiet but wants to be walkable to the French Quarter. Thanks Again!
This was an absolute perfect place to stay for Mardi Gras.
Everything was within walking distance and yet nestled far enough away from the hustle and bustle.
The unit was beautiful inside and out. Having a balcony and on site parking was a huge bonus as well.
David and Irelis are wonderful hosts. They were quick to respond to any questions we had and also kept in touch with us while we were there to make sure our stay was the best it could be.
We would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful apartment with walkable access. Wish the weather was better as we only had one day to enjoy coffee on the balcony. Temperature controls in each room helpful. Hosts respond promptly to any inquiry
What a perfect spot for our stay in NOLA. The condo couldn’t have been in a better location. Walkable to all of the best Frenchman Street and French Quarter spots. The decor was beautiful and comfortable. And the layout was great for two couples. The bedrooms were very private and it had all the amenities needed for a long weekend. And the free Kureg coffee and snacks were a nice bonus. We will definitely be back soon.
Property was in great spot and owners were very accommodating. We had two small issues. One was out of owners control, as there was a power outage. We were packing up without light, hot water, charging devices and home became extremely hot. The only other issue was not having an elevator with a lot of luggage and a lot of stairs, including spiral staircase. Everything else was very nice and we were laughing and loud late Sunday morning, to which the property owners knocked on our door to be quiet, which we felt terrible about but it was like a weekend night for our last night of a girls trip in NOLA!
Overall very good. Parking space was very tight. Wish it had a full size coffee maker. Some people might have difficulty going up and down the spiral staircase to the lower level bedroom.
The location was perfect for us—a short walk to French quarter, Frenchmen Street and yet very quiet. Ingenious design features that are functional & beautiful, down to the last detail. AC kept thing chill during the heat of the day & the balcony was wonderful in the evening. The place is flawless really, with some very thoughtful touches (used the umbrella 2x). One of the best short-term rentals I’ve ever stayed at. Thank you — we’ll be back.
