About this property

New Colorful Marigny 2br- Close to Everything!

Summary:
Don't miss this Colorful house in the Heart of the Marigny!

Built in 1901, this two bedroom two bathroom house has recently been restored to make you stay as comfortable as possible, while still highlighting the original historic features of the house - including the original hardwood floors!

The location is elite, enjoy all that New Orleans has to offer -5 blocks to Frenchmen Street and only 7 blocks to the French Quarter. Great for Mardi Gras, Festival season, and all year round!

The Space:
Incredible two bedroom half double- close to everything!

-Less than one block to Pepp's Pub
-Less than one block to Big Daddy's Bar
-Two blocks to the Franklin Restaurant
-Two blocks to Orange Couch Cafe
-Three blocks to St Roch Market
-Four Blocks to Frenchmen Street
-Six Block to the French Quarter

Bedrooms are independent (not shotgun style) so everyone gets privacy! A rarity in the marigny.

Guest Access:
Guests access the entire half double, including kitchen, laundry, etc.

The Neighborhood:
The Faubourg Marigny, commonly just Marigny, is a hip neighborhood just "below" (down river from) the French Quarter. Best known for the great live music district on Frenchmen Street, the Marigny also offers neighborhood cafes & businesses, historic architecture, and more. It has the air of what the French Quarter was in it's golden days. It has a few small hotels, and many bed-and-breakfasts, as well as a number of good restaurants, coffee shops, and music venues. Architecturally, the Marigny is known for its many styles of Creole cottages, most of which date to the 19th century. Its "heart" is Washington Square Park (bounded by Frenchmen Street, Royal Street, Dauphine Street, and Elysian Fields Avenue). Frenchmen Street is the main nightlife district, with half a dozen live music clubs and just as many restaurants in four short blocks. At Mardi Gras, the Marigny is one of the city's hidden hot spots. Very popular with locals, who enjoy partying in the streets without the busy atmosphere of Bourbon Street. Crowds gather at the corner of Royal and Kerlerec (outside of R-Bar Inn) as well as at the intersection of Royal and Franklin. Elaborate costumes are the order of the day, along with brass bands and many drummers. Two weeks before Mardi Gras, the Marigny is also the starting place for the Krewe du Vieux, a satirical, raunchy parade in 19th-century Carnival style! Complete with small floats drawn by krewe members and mules. Local cafes, restaurants and music venues line Frenchmen Street. Known for its bohemian atmosphere, the Marigny is home to many artists and musicians, as well as a sizable gay and lesbian population. Among its notable residents are chef Paul Prudhomme, painter James Michalopoulas, and actors Harry Shearer and Jennifer Coolidge, who can be seen around town when they're not working in L.A. Local writers include New Orleans mystery writers, Julie Smith and J.M. Redmann, as well as Andrei Codrescu, Michael Swindle, and Kevin Allman. Frenchmen Street is in the Faubourg Marigny neighborhood just below the lower edge of the Quarter. A 4 block stretch of bars, restaurants, and coffee shops mixed with live music venues make it one of the city's most hip places, catering more to locals than tourists (though tourists are certainly welcome, and welcomed). On any given night, one might find modern jazz, swinging traditional jazz, Latin American style music, rockabilly, and more within this small area.

Getting Around:
You can walk most places. There is a streetcar line that goes by the house (five blocks away) and can take you to the central business district. But really, you will be able to walk anywhere in the French quarter. For everything else, Lyfts are plentiful and quite cheap!

Other Things to Note:
House rules-

Quiet hours after 11pm - the owner lives on site
No parties allowed
No smoking inside

Interaction with Guests:
I don't plan to bother my guests, but if you need something I will be there in a second!

Marigny property
The property was well-appointed, newly renovated and very clean. Located in a really interesting part of New Orleans, it was walkable to where we wanted to go, which was exactly what we were looking for. Our only issue was loud music and talking in the backyard of the property 2 of the 4 nights we stayed that happened during the property's quiet hours until 2-3 am.

Mardi Gras for the locals
This was our 5th Mardi Grad and our first time in this neighborhood. We loved it and will be back. The house is in a great location. It is in great condition just like the photos on line. Quick walk to the French Quarter et al. Great place!

Charming Property great location
We really enjoyed our stay for a long weekend. Great location near Frenchman's street. There is a coffee shop and some local bars across the street from this place. Home was very clean and beds were comfortable. Parking is in front of the home. We will stay here again when we go back.

Check the local dive bars right across the street
There’s a lot of gems right there, you don’t have to always venture to the FQ.

Great location! Very Clean and Modern.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen and bathrooms are clean and modern. No complaints whatsoever. Be advised that while this is a 5-10 minute walk to Frenchmen Street, the corner it’s on backs onto two noisy bars. While not an issue during the day, you WILL hear people leaving the bars at night. Again, not a deal-breaker as the house is great, but just be advised. Would definitely recommend as it’s such a short walk to some cool little coffee shops in the area and Frenchmen Street in the Quarter. Would book again!
