House was originally built in 1902 and described further:
- 5 King Beds (one in each bedroom)
- Queen Pull Out Sofa Be
- Cable TV in each bedroom
- Wireless internet throughout house

This house is setup for you to walk in and enjoy. It is setup for short-term rental and is ideal for traveling families or groups of friends. The property is roughly 3,000 s.f. with 5 bedrooms and 2 baths, a private courtyard in the back and a front porch for relaxing. You will feel like you are part of New Orleans while you stay in this turn of the century home. Of the 5 bedrooms, one of the bedrooms is located downstairs, with the other 4 bedrooms located upstairs.

Safety & Parking
The house is located in a very safe and secure neighborhood called Uptown. The street is very wide (wider than normal) and is located across the street from an Elementary School, so there is plenty of parking and good lighting at night. This house is ideal for groups of women and families who are looking for a safe and convenient place to stay while visiting New Orleans.

Walking Distance
The house is walking distance to the famous St. Charles Street Car line, which can take you anywhere in the city - including downtown and the French Quarter. Even though it is faster to Uber, I highly recommend taking the street car at least once while you are in town. The house is also walking distance to coffee and begneits (corner of St. Charles & Milan), as well as walking distance to many eateries and drinking establishments along the Freret Corridor.
- 5-7 minute walk to St. Charles Street Car Line
- 7-10 minute Uber to Downtown/FrenchQuarter

Attractions:
St. Charles Street Car Line
Audubon Zoo, Aquarium, Children's Museum, WWII Museum
Tulane, Loyola, Dillard, Xavier
French Quarter

Suited our needs
Ours was a party of 7. We stayed comfortably in this house and enjoyed the quiet of the neighborhood. It was a good base for Tulane graduation and walking to eateries on Feret street. This is not a touristy area so you will Uber to the French quarter and to Tulane. Each room had a King size bed. The house has 2 bathrooms, one on each floor. Each room has a tv. The house has a lot of charm….hardwood floors, tall ceilings, New Orleans decor. The sleeper sofa has been replaced so there is not one that opens up. Bring your own bath soap and shampoo. The place was clean.

Great spot!
Nice, quiet location. Across the street from a school. Short walk from some bars, restaurants, grocery, cafes. Check out The Library bar on Prytania. Had 6 adults in our group and the house was spacious. Host was friendly and communicative. Downsides: door knobs were funky (someone got stuck in bathroom once) and the beds had metal chains as decor, which personally i found if i flipped over it rattled and hit the headboard. Overall we would stay again.

Great stay in N.O.
First off the communication with the host was top notch! The property was huge, it was several of us and no one felt on top of each other. The home was clean and the beds are so comfortable. I thought we would have an issue due to there only being two bathrooms and my girls (grown women), hog the bathrooms, but this was not an issue due to there being several mirrors around the house they could hop in front of an do their make-up. The kitchen has all the cookware you could need to cook a meal, however we ate out or ordered in. Overall a great stay for large groups and small ones for that matter.

Great location, clean house
We had a wonderful stay here. The location is very good, it's quiet and there's plenty of parking. The house was clean, the hvac worked well and the beds were comfy. There was plenty of hot water. The kitchen had the basic stuff which worked for us. We only ate breakfast here. The only drawbacks were the lack of friendly lighting in the living room, which we solved using a bedroom lamp. The door knobs fall off and some of the doors don't stay closed. It's an old house and it shows. But we were comfortable here and every one had their own bedroom, which is why it deserves all 5 stars.

Great Property for Large Groups
This is a great house and my family very much enjoyed staying there. You've got a downstairs bedroom if you have anyone in the group that has trouble with stairs which is great when needed. The neighborhood is dark at night but we felt safe and loved the proximity to everything we wanted to see and do. My only feedback is that the floors in the house were very dusty when we arrived - while not a big issue they should be very clean. I'm sure it will be next time. Overall, we will absolutely stay here again.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Me and a group of friends meet up in New Orleans for the weekend and we so happy with the house. The house was so spacious and all the beds were very big and comfortable. Our weekend was a huge success and so much fun in large part due to this wonderful place! Was so close and accessible to the Superdome, Bourbon St & Frenchmen St. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Big event weekend
We were in town with our whole family for my oldest daughters graduation and Mother’s Day. There were 5 adults and 1 infant. The house was very spacious and we were thrilled to know they even had a pack n play for the baby so we didn’t have to bring one on the plane. The location is great, easy to find and close to everything by Uber or trolley. The house is very old but beautiful historic architecture. The only issues were no privacy for the bedroom downstairs, the pocket doors didn’t work. My husband is unable to do stairs so that was a bit of a bummer. The tv in the living room is hung way too high above the fireplace but thank goodness we didn’t have too much time for tv. The backyard did have some trash on the ground from previous guests and wasn’t cleaned up very well. Overall this was a great property and we were all very pleased with everything it had for our stay.

Spacious
We were visiting for a small family reunion and it was recommended by our family there to stay in Uptown for safety. We had no issues in that regard. We were also close enough to easily make the trip to the quarter, and also to visit family in Metairie. The neighborhood was nice, we did not stay there much but did take a walk down to the restaurants which were fantastic. Side note, there is a school across the street so we woke up with the intercom during the mornings, it took a minute to figure out what it was :) Not a big deal at all, just kind of funny. The house was more spacious than I anticipated, it has been kept close to its historic design but with upgrades like kitchen appliances and electronics (Wifi and TV).

Quiet, comfortable home!
I organized a birthday gathering with 8 women to NewOrleans. The house was spacious, easily accommodating all of us! The kitchen was well stocked and laid out although we ate out exclusively. I particularly liked the genius idea of running power cords to the edge of each side of the beds! Perfect for keeping all our phones charged! The outside patio seating was great for morning coffee! The only thing I’d recommend is some shower strips or a mat in each of the bathtubs! Bottom line though, we all had a marvelous time! Thanks Yogi!

Fabulous uptown gem!
This house is truly an experience! The minute we walked in we loved it. The owners have maintained the unique and historical architectural elements, while updating the appliances and all the amenities (great kitchen, TVs in all bedrooms etc). We loved the two staircases - my kiddos had a blast. Great location- just a few blocks from a playground and Freret street with ice cream shop, restaurants etc. adults and kiddos were very happy..we didn’t want to leave ! The neighbors were friendly and hospitable. I would strongly recommend this house and property owner; accessing the house was easy. I’d definitely stay here again!

Great house for bigger groups!
It’s so hard to pick someplace to stay from photos, but if your traveling with a group, this 5 bed / 2 bath home is for you! We were a group of 9 (w/adult children). Great space gave room to come together and privacy when desired. The owner keeps the house well stocked with necessities. A quick call to Whole Foods (delivery) and we were set to go! Uber was an inexpensive way to get to the French Quarter and take in the sights and sounds! Owner allowed us to leave late so we didn’t have to hang out at the cruise port for hours. Great communication! Would highly recommend this house and Yogi!
