About this condo rental

Located in Faubourg Marigny, this charming condo for £85 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. 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!

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.

There’s a lot of gems right there, you don’t have to always venture to the FQ.

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!

Pros: -The house was very nicely decorated, clean, and well stocked. We had plenty of pillows and towels during our stay. -It was great to have access to a washing machine and dryer. We went home with clean clothes so it was easy to unpack after our trip. -1/2 mile walking distance to the French Quarter. -The neighborhood was fairly safe. If you went a few blocks north, it got a little sketchy but those areas were easy to avoid. Seems typical for any urban neighborhood. -Many restaurants, bars, and grocery shops within a short walking distance- we really enjoyed The Franklin, Silk Road and Flora’s Coffee. -Easy to find street parking. We left our car parked right in front during our stay. Cons: -There are 2 bars literally right outside the back bedroom door and I don’t think they ever closed at night. The noise and light was hard to deal with while sleeping, so keep that in mind if you’re a light sleeper or early riser. -There isn’t any outside seating. That would have been a nice thing to have on the front porch or even in the back patio. -A throw blanket or two would have been a welcome addition in the living area. Overall, I’d rate this location 8.5/10. We really liked the location for walking distance and the neighborhood seemed fairly safe. If we were more into the bar scene, this would have been a 10/10. The bar noise was the only major drawback!

Quaint, clean home with New Orleans flavor. The home is comfy & well stocked on necessities, the beds are awesome! Close to lots of good restaurants but not crowded or loud during our visit. Highly recommend this property. I especially love the porch, where we sat for a few minutes nightly before bed. Good people watching spot.
