About this bed and breakfast

Situated in New Orleans, this attractive bed and breakfast for $199 per night is a great choice for your next break. Permit #17STR-12088 Be among the fortunate to stay in this charmed Nola abode with free guest parking just steps from the door! Well situated close to The French Quarter, Jazz Fest, Frenchmen St, Esplanade Ave, and beautiful City Park. This is the heart of New Orleans' best attractions, while anchored in a historic Creole neighborhood that has an authentic atmosphere of southern warmth amidst a colorful sampling of New Orleans' architecture. Enjoy old Nawlins' charm with the comfort of the most modern amenities. Great for couples, groups, biz travelers & families. The open concept floor plan and sunny afternoon exposure give it a welcoming light-filled quality. In typical New Orleans style, The Happiness Haven is made for entertaining and spending quality time with family and friends. Free parking waiting for 1-3 guest cars just steps from your front door! There is the large open kitchen/living room space (with 55" flat screen TV) where you can relax, make meals together, and enjoy each others' company, as well as the lovely courtyard just outside the side entrance door. The dual-master bedroom suites both have their own private baths. The Murphy bed, 40" flat screen TV, and desk with printer make the 3rd bedroom a space to fulfill many needs. It may be used as a bedroom (which shares a bath with the 2nd Master Bedroom), reading/exercise/meditation room, dedicated office, or secondary TV room when the living room is otherwise occupied or media tastes diverge. In short, The Happiness Haven offers a lot of flexibility all in a beautiful setting that is designed for total comfort and togetherness with plenty of room for everyone to find their very own happy place. The main house was renovated in 2014 and this 1st floor in-law apartment was just completed in the spring of 2017. The house is in the city's historic landmark district. Host maintains guest comfort, privacy, and space but always available as needed. We live upstairs in the separate 2nd floor residence. You have your own private entrance to the apartment directly off of the street and via the courtyard. We may occasionally cross paths walking through the courtyard (fully available for your use throughout your stay) but otherwise, you are not likely to see us unless you message us for assistance. Note: This is a 1st floor apartment with low ceilings. Surprisingly, the overall brightness of the space and open floor plan make the ceiling height a subtle aspect of the Haven's overall coziness. The 7th Ward is a historic Creole New Orleans' neighborhood. Many of the rich traditions of New Orleans' culture were born in the 7th Ward. Our home was owned by one of the most prominent Creole families in the city making it part of a long history of family and community of which we feel honored to take part. This area of the 7th Ward is known as Esplanade Ridge because of its proximity to Esplanade Ave and its ridge elevation. It is truly an urban neighborhood - a stone's throw to all the happenings but still with a quiet though friendly local community feel. New Orleans continues to change quickly right before our eyes so our neighborhood is quite mixed with families who have been here for generations and many newcomers to the city. This is also a popular neighborhood for short-term rentals so you will often see other visitors heading your way. Walk 10 blocks (20 minutes) or take a $6-$8 Uber (approx.) to get to the French Quarter or Frenchmen St. Or, if it is Jazz Fest time, walk, bike, Uber/taxi 12 blocks in the opposite direction to get to the Fair Grounds. Walk three blocks to the picturesque Esplanade Ave. and take the bus or Uber/Lyft to City Park where you can check out the New Orleans Museum of Art, the Sculpture Garden, the Botanical Garden, and so much more!

This home is wonderful- beautiful decor, comfortable beds (even the Murphy bed), and a beautiful courtyard that we enjoyed every morning and evening. Easy, quick uber rides anywhere you want to go. I would recommend using Instacart and having your groceries delivered. We would highly recommend this rental in the Treme neighborhood!

This was truly an amazing place to stay. Our first time visiting New Orleans and can't wait to return. Only hope we are fortunate enough to rent this same property again. Our hosts were amazing, the accommodations were perfect in every respect and so close to all we wanted to see and do we could walk or take a short Uber ride. 100% would recommend!

We had a great time at the Happiness House. The AC in the front room went on the frit, and the owners were very quick to get it repaired. They were also very easy to communicate with.

Comfortable and clean, this property was the perfect spot for our reunion, we had 5 adults here but could have easily fit 1 or two more. 3 full bedrooms 2 bathrooms and plenty of space to stretch out. The patio was a boon and well used while we were there. Loved having the convenience of a washer dryer on site and the ability to make coffee, tea or a full meal. Check the hosts recommendations for local spots. Easy access to French Quarter via foot, bike, bus...only about a mile away. Will definitely come back!!! Many, many stars!!!

We found the home exactly as advertised. The owners were most helpful and very responsive. Always replying to my questions within the hour - usually within 30 minutes. The home was very comfortable and it was lovely to have some of the basics supplied in the kitchen - spices etc. The washer and dryer were lovely to have and laundry soap was even provided. The outdoor sitting area was a great place for our morning coffee and end of day wind down. So comfortable and fit all 7 of us easily. Location was not close enough to walk to the French Quarter but was only a $10 UBER or a short walk (5 minutes) to the bus - this is what we were searching for. Close but not noisy. We went for walks in the neighborhood and felt safe. Parking was right outside the gated courtyard. While not off the street we did not worry about our rental Van at all, we felt very secure leaving it there. If I was ever to return to NOLA I would not hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend the place.
