We thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving week stay at this property. The apartment itself was loaded with New Orleans charm (artwork, high ceilings, lovely antique furniture, ceiling fans, tons of natural light) and was stocked with every possible convenience. In vacation properties, I have often found a lack of basic items, but this was absolutely not the case with this rental, as such things were provided in abundance: plenty of towels, soap, shampoo, cleaning items, etc. Should one be inclined to cook (in New Orleans??), spices, pots and pans, working appliances, etc. were supplied, as were utensils, dishes, and glassware of all sorts, etc. We had one problem with the primary television (and T-Day is a big sports weekend), but it was resolved the next morning with a replacement TV. We were impressed and gratified by the rapid response. The hosts are super and were extremely responsive to our every need. There is an excellent Irish pub located two doors down -- exceptional food, sports viewing galore, great ambiance. Surprisingly, no sounds drifted down to the apartment. The entire neighborhood is comfortable, safe, and tremendously appealing. The streetcar is a couple of blocks away. We will definitely seek to rent this property on our next visit to this magical city.
