Worked for what we needed

The area is safe and quiet. It is also very close to Magazine St. which was convenient. The kitchen was large and had seating for us to enjoy conversing. There is also 2 bathrooms which was convenient. There are some stairs to enter so if you have difficulty with stairs this may not work. The main cons for us were that the room with the day bed did not have a door and was an area off the living room with a large (double door) opening. So there is no privacy and if someone is in the bed you can't use the living room. Also the windows in the day bed area and the smaller bedroom had very shear drapes with no blinds at all. The water pressure is extremely low. It is low in the showers and in the sinks. For us the location and the price worked. I would stay again if there was nothing else available. You just need to adjust to the water pressure and the early morning sunlight. I looked for extra sheets to drape over the windows but there weren't any available.

Lovely neighborhood, easy walk to Magazine Street and the trolley on Saint Charles. Lots of restaurants close-by.The layout was wonky because of the shotgun style. We did not know that you had to go through the bedrooms get to the kitchen or to the bathroom

Great stay, review from an ex-local!

Great apartment in a great location! Went back for a family trip, moved away about 15 years ago and wanted to reintoduce our nephew to the city! Really great location a few blocks off Magazine St. About a 10min drive to the FQ and a 10min drive to Oak St.,so really ez to get around uptown and downtown! Apartment is setup very nice, very eclectic and has a great NOLA vibe! If you are looking for a full house in uptown, this isnt it, but its got everything else where it counts!

Great location for short getaway.

Excellent location and easy check in process. Really easy walk to magazine Street and all the shops and restaurant. Also the trolley is about nine blocks away which is an easy walk. Really nice to be able to find a property with enough beds for 3 to 4 people. One of the best was quite uncomfortable so I'm glad we only stayed a couple of days. It wouldn't deter me from staying there again because the rest of the property was great and the location was excellent.

Big easy that was so easy

Had a great time. All of family flew in for a wedding. Lots of eateries in walking distance. Felt safe and secure. Bed famed were a little squeaky, but mattresses were fine. Like other Nola properties, the house was a shotgun layout and the floors had some uneveness, but you adjusted. Because it’s an upstairs unit, would not recommend for those with accessibility issues.

Great New Orleans House

We got to the house an hour early and let ourselves in...which I know isn't great😬 but property was ready and host was totally cool which I appreciated alot. House is so cute with New Orleans character and decor. All 4 beds were so comfortable and amenities were amazing. This is a 5 star neighborhood, we walked to every parade on st Charles (5 or 6 blocks) and great restaurants at every corner. The little coffee bar was amazing and neighbors were literally the nicest . The only thing I can think of that wasn't great was the futon in living room, it was uncomfortable but house had like 4 extra blankets to lay down on it so ...we had a wonderful trip and would definitely love to stay again!!!! Thankyou so much!!!

Truly an Irish Gem

We loved staying in this Irish Gem. We were taking our daughter back to Tulane for her Sophomore year and this property was just perfect. The location was great and the home was absolutely charming! We all appreciated the thoughtfulness/preparedness of the host in her efforts to make us feel at home in NOLA.

Would Love to Return

The pictures and description of this property are accurate, but don't do it justice. The kitchen is spacious and inviting, and the rooms are darling. The whole space was immaculate. Our host was immediate in her response to our questions. The neighbors were kind and friendly, and we enjoyed walking to Magazine Street for delicious meals and great shopping. The St. Charles streetcar was just a couple of blocks in the other direction, and from there we were able to navigate the city. The only precautionary remark would be for travelers with accessibility needs. The sidewalks in the neighborhood would be difficult to navigate with a wheelchair or walker, and the unit is upstairs.

Place is easy check-in on a relatively quiet block, 2 blocks off magazine. It’s a good base away from the quarter for local fun, but still a short ride to FQ if you wanted to go. It’s a clean older home with real neighbors who seemed welcoming.
