Great stay!
Stayed here for a week and was blown away by this place. In the heart of the lower ninth ward, about 500 feet away from the Mississippi River, felt like a relatively safe area and the hosts were communicative and accommodating. Will definitely be back!

An absolute delight
Affordable stay, beautiful house, clean spaces, close to bus stations and only a bus ride away from FQ, responsive and kind hosts; an absolute full package. It was my parents first time in NOLA and the hosts and their perfect cottage made an excellent experience which made them love NOLA as much as I do.

Will be here every chance we get
I recently had the pleasure of staying in a beautiful home in New Orleans, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with Southern hospitality and an atmosphere of charm and warmth that perfectly embodies the spirit of the city.The house itself was absolutely stunning, blending classic New Orleans architecture with modern amenities. We were in awe of the grand, airy rooms, amazing ceilings, and intricate details, like the beautiful ironwork around the house. The space was cozy, offering the perfect mix of relaxation and elegance.The location was unbeatable. We were just a short stroll away from the iconic French Quarter, with its vibrant culture, delicious food, and lively music scene. The energy of the city was contagious, and we found ourselves enjoying the nearby jazz clubs, local eateries, and exploring the historic streets by day and night.The hosts were incredibly accommodating making sure we had everything we need and hidden gems around the city. Their thoughtful touches, like a welcome container filled with local treats and maps of the area, made us feel right at home.Overall, this vacation stay exceeded all expectations. It was the ideal base for our New Orleans adventure, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, memorable experience in this vibrant city. Whether you’re here for the culture, the food, or simply to take in the charm of the Crescent City, this house is the perfect place.
