A Beautiful Jewel Box... This House Is Painted Black !

Come chill in the sitting pool!! This private house has one private bedroom and a living room. There is a nice size kitchen , with a cozy gas fireplace. the living room has a couch but it is not a fold-out. The bedroom opens on to a gorgeous courtyard with a sitting pool. All new renovation , but old world charm remains. It is in a great location .. Within walking distance to the Marigny, Bywater and the French Quarter. There are a variety of bars, restaurants and coffee shops near by. Best of all, the St. Roch Market is just steps away!

Located in a rich cultural part of the city. Everything in walking distance. Our stay was cozy and loved the patio and boutique pool to relax. Great communication from owner Tom and very accommodating and facilitated our late arrival. Local beers and chips were so welcoming.

Great Spot for Walking into the Quarter

We enjoyed our stay here and easily walked to and from the French Quarter during our stay! The AC is two window units that are probably nearing the end of their lives but this wasn't a big deal. The pool is awesome and great for relaxing after your day out exploring. Hosts are awesome and answered any and all questions we had!

Great location!

This location was very convenient for us with places like St. Roch Market, Honey’s and the Food Co-Op within easy walking distance. The only downside for us was crowd noise from the St. Roch Tavern, which kept us up at night a bit later than we would have preferred.

Nice

Great location beautiful garden area. Didn’t realize it was a shared common area but we got lucky and nobody else was there. Host was great would be nice to have another bed side table and area for computer for people that need to set up for work. Maybe some updates close to all you want to do. Would return

Beautiful and quirky

This home was the best part of our stay in New Orleans! It was comfortable and cute, and the neighbor hood and shops were our favorites. We loved sitting in the courtyard and relaxing. Roch market was our favorite, and the salty pearl was our favorite dining experience! We got oysters and the seafood gumbo and both were phenomenal. The bloody Mary from the bar next to the oyster place was the best I've ever had. We also loved viewing the art at the spiritual center across the street. Beautiful, amazing, and inspirational!
