The host was very prompt in responding to questions and providing information. The property manager lived right next door and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and provided us with great information about the neighborhood and New Orleans in general.Our group was made up of 5 women aged 70-83 and having 4 bedrooms was a real treat.We felt very comfortable and safe at this location. It was a quiet residential area and we found a couple of great places to eat within walking distance. The Kitchen Table offered a great menu and a good jazz combo group. The Arabi restaurant was a 2 block walk for breakfast and The Whiskey Bayou had a lovely back patio to enjoy a light bite and a glass of wine. We also took advantage of the bus system one day; about a 1 mile walk This group has been traveling together and staying at VRBOs for over twenty years and we would rate this property in the top three of places we have stayed.It was about a 20 minute drive to downtown New Orleans so the location was great as well

Amazing place to stay

The house was amazing. It was wonderful to stay in a home that has been standing in New Orleans from the beginning. The home has lots of history. Can’t tell ya about it and ruin the surprise. The location is perfect. Quiet, safe neighborhood, easy drive or uber to anywhere. Kevin meets you at the property for a quick tour and history lesson which is awesome. Then he is just a phone call away for any questions and is willing to help with anything during your stay. We had a member of our party that ended up not feeling well during the trip. Kevin even kept a check up on her and offered to drop off Gatorade’s or anything else that was needed at the door. Absolute southern hospitality. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thanks Kevin.

Lovely Home

If you want a true New Orleans experience, include this well appointed airbnb in your plans. Lovely, clean historic home and a short drive to the quarter. Large enough for two families. I would definitely stay here again. Barbara P

Highly recommend, will be back:)

Highly recommend. Freshly painted, very clean and comfortable. Beautifully decorated. Kitchen had all the amenities we needed. Having a washer and dryer also came in handy. Really enjoyed the large covered porch to sit and relax on after we went sightseeing close by all day! (less than 10 min away) Will be back!
