Beautiful apartment, great location
Loved this cozy apartment in walking distance to a lot of cute shops and restaurants. Owners were so gracious and would def stay again. There are lots of steps, so make sure your party is mobile. The bedroom is at the entrance of the hallway so you may hear some hall noise and the hall lights do come through, but I just switched them off when we went to sleep. Overall, a great place.

Everything you want!
The apartment is charming and the neighborhood is excellent. I walked to the WW2 Museum easily. The St. Charles streetcar is also an easy stroll. I had a fab lunch at the Bower next door and Magazine St. is a long fun place to explore. The host, Jules, was great, It was perfect for me, but if you have issues with steps, there is a set of stairs to get to the second floor.

PERFECT NOLA
Talk about the perfect quintessential NOLA stay…….THIS is it! Having lived only 1.5 miles further down on Magazine just four years ago; it was such a joy to discover how amazing this area has become in such a short period of time. The apartment was not only in a perfect location but also tastefully decorated/equipped. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything about this place and hoping to make it my only go-to everytime I visit NOLA! Thank you!

Great location
This is a great location for visiting New Orleans. 4 blocks from WW 2 museum, 6 blocks from streetcar. 2 excellent restaurants within 1/2 block. The apartment fit all our needs and was supplied with basics. Its still a work in progress but feels historical. Contact with hostess was easy and quick. We would highly recommend this.

Character and comfort
We had a lovely 5-night stay in the Library. Fair warning to those with aging knees like us - when the reviews say “expect some steps”, this is a second floor unit and there is a fairly steep, twenty step staircase. We found that we generally only went out once or twice and spent most of the day out, so that didn’t affect us as much as we thought it might… The area was nice, fairly quiet, but with some really good restaurants (try Surreys for breakfast - you won’t be sorry)! The rental was comfortable with a small but fully stocked kitchen, plentiful hot water, and a good bed. The only thing we found lacking was a few more pieces of furniture - a bench at the end of the bed to put our suitcase on and an ottoman in the living room to rest our aching feet would have been nice. Would definitely stay again, though!

Garden of Pleasure
We were fortunate to book this space in the Lower Garden District in NOLA. We love the city and the charm of the railroad apartments and this one was no exception. Clean lines, simple furniture, well lit, in an historical area that is now a hot spot. Who Knew??? It's location is perfect. Close to the French Quarter, A downtown area of art and galleries, restaurants etc and a few doors from our entrance are other new restaurants and venues. So it was so easy...and we were too comfortable. Our hosts were BEYOND!!!! We sent our itinerary and they made suggestions for sights and dining that were excellent. We luckily had an opportunity to meet in person, and we just connected. Thank you J&B for EVERYTHING.

Stayed March 25th-28th. True New Orleans style home. Inside clean & homey. Bed very comfortable. Place was quiet for some good sleeping. Area has many restaurants, bars & coffee shops all within walking distance. WWII Museum also within walking distance. St. Charles Street car a few short blocks away. Jules was available & very responsive to any info we needed. Downfalls, would have loved the back yard to be cleaned up so it could be utilized as a nice afternoon sitting area. Few open cracks in doors to balcony which made for very brisk mornings inside the home. Front door difficult to unlock. Could use a new internal mechanism. All in all it was a good place to stay.
