Beautiful space!
The house has a ton of character. There were ram's heads on the top & bottom of the banister & a freaking gargoyle on the upstairs balcony. The stove is different from the pictures - it's probably a $5k stove. I wish we'd stayed long enough to cook a meal! There were thoughtful touches throughout. I appreciated the white noise machines in each bedroom & hooks everywhere! There's shampoo, conditioner, & body wash in both bath tubs & hand soap in both bathrooms. The only things that I see in hotels that weren't there are tissues, lotion, & bar soap, but no complaints. I appreciated that there was plenty of coffee. I loved all the wallpaper choices. We would stay there again. It's 2 blocks to the St. Charles streetcar, & maybe 6 blocks to both Wendy's and Popeyes, & The Avenue Pub, one of my favorite places in NOLA. It was maybe 8 blocks to the Ponchetrain Hotel.
There was a fingernail on the bathroom counter when we checked in, so maybe that space didn't get properly cleaned. It's 2 blocks to a major homeless camp, which I knew when I booked. We talked to a few unhoused folks walking to Popeyes. I'd like to see a grab bar in the upstairs bath for the 2' drop into the tub. The plug for the white noise machine was sticky-washed my hands after touching that & throwing away the fingernail & it was all good. It seemed clean otherwise. Designed for tall people-short Aunt had trouble reaching stuff, had to use 1st floor bath. AC might be iffy when hot. Checkout rules were reasonable.
