This centrally located 900 sq ft 2-bedroom home features 2 bedrooms, a full kitchen, a full bathroom, a side yard, a driveway, and 4 bicycles for guests to use during their stay. Check in is super simple with a keyless entry system. NEW ORLEANS STR LICENSE PERMIT NUMBER: 17STR-11638 The Space This house is a 2 bedroom traditional shotgun home -- If you're not familiar with a shotgun home, it is a floor plan of continuous rooms. This means you walk through one room to get to the next. Both bedrooms have doors that can be closed/locked for privacy, but to get from the front room of the house to the back room of the house, you must walk through all the rooms -- Each bedroom has a full-size bed with custom hand built furniture throughout the space. The house also includes a personal driveway that can fit 2 cars and additional free street parking. The living room is a welcoming, comfortable space with ample room to lounge and rest. Ask me if you require additional sleeping arrangements. Guest access Guests have access to the entire house, driveway, parking, both side yards, and front porch with table, chairs, and a swing. Other things to note Here you will get the experience of having your own home while you are on vacation in New Orleans. Everything you really need to make your stay as smooth and enjoyable as possible is provided here for you from towels to coffee, to your very own Guide Book... all of the necessities are here! I want you to feel at home, even if it's just for a night! Everything in my home is yours to use. The home is cleaned by a professional cleaning service after every reservation, so it is in tip top shape for when you arrive for your NOLA trip. If you find you need anything or have any questions, I live next door and am just a quick text message away to help in any way I can. The neighborhood I live on a quiet block of New Orleans street in the historical 7th Ward of New Orleans. My neighborhood is a lower income, working-class neighborhood, that was flooded during Hurricane Katrina, like much of the rest of the city at that time. Many of the people who live in my neighborhood have lived here for generations. Right off the bat, you might be like, "Oh My... Is this neighborhood safe?" Well yes, Dorothy it is, but you sure aren't in Kansas anymore. The 7th Ward is nothing fancy, just a regular New Orleans Lower/Middle-class ethnically diverse neighborhood that has seen a recent revival. Sometimes people play music on the porches, sometimes a car goes by with loud bass - a normal day in the 7th ward. I want to ensure that your stay is enjoyable, comfortable, and as expected. I would ask that you make sure you fully read my listing and understand your possible first impression of the neighborhood. At first glance, it may seem sort of "rough around the edges" from someone who is not familiar, but the people who live in the community are good people. I actually live on the other side of the Duplex, and I have NEVER had any problem with safety or crime. Actually, I absolutely love where I live and I'm confident you will too! :) Again, this is just to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible and you are aware of what to expect. That being said. The location is great and very centrally located to almost all of the attractions New Orleans has to offer. 5 minutes to the French Quarter. 5 Minutes to City Park. 5 Minutes to Frenchman St. Also just a quick UBER ride to anywhere else in the city. I am constantly trying to improve the house as well, so there's a good chance the house will look even better than in the pictures by the time you arrive. Getting around The French Quarter and Frenchman street are a short 1.3 miles car/bike/Uber ride away (walking not recommended). You should always keep in mind that even in the safest and wealthiest of neighborhoods in New Orleans, you are still in New Orleans, so please no matter where you choose to stay during your trip be safe and smart. Taking a cab or Uber home from the bars at night is always a better idea. $6 Uber ~or~ 8-minute bike ride .... bikes included with your reservation ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Street parking available - Car not required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Games ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: No smoking indoors, patio is okay! ### Services and conveniences - Guidebooks - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 925 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34310000/34302900/34302889/31ec3327.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 1800 sf Townhome - Minutes to Everything in Town Uptown and Carrollton District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.8 Exceptional 92 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-23&endDate=2025-11-24&selected=34302889&PinnedHotelID=34302889&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115060000/115051700/115051652/4b4cc60d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming 2-bedroom townhome 5 mins from Airport Kenner - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 2.0 1 review CA $246 CA $437 total includes taxes & fees Nov 10 - Nov 11 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-10&endDate=2025-11-11&selected=115051652&PinnedHotelID=115051652&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/58000000/57350000/57341200/57341145/5a4b5fdf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stunning, Modern 2 BD, 1 Block off St. Charles Lower Garden District - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 47 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-23&endDate=2025-11-24&selected=57341145&PinnedHotelID=57341145&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed Note from host: Case by case basis, shoot me a message :) ### Children and extra beds This property does not allow children ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted No smoking indoors, patio is okay! ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property Host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property Safety features at this property include a fire extinguisher, a first aid kit, and a deadbolt lock This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

Jul 30, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Experience The house was a great size to accommodate a group of 6 guests. Sal was extremely communicative and helpful when we reached out. The location was convenient for grocery shopping and ridesharing, and the bikes offered a cool way to explore the city further. If you have the opportunity try to explore the surrounding area (make sure to pay attention to your surroundings). The community seemed tight-knit but many people were willing to talk with us and give us advice on best places to go. Only complaint is the lack of mirrors - but will likely only be an issue when traveling in larger groups. ##### Olivia H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua G. Mar 8, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice Place was nice and clean host was helpful and fast to respond ##### Joshua G. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ariel S. Jan 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy spot Good spot to stay if you know where it is. Owner is very on top of things; at one point the internet went out and it was fixed almost immediately. May be difficult for some to rely on public transportation if that is their plan. ##### Ariel S. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [NOPSI Hotel, New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-NOPSI-Hotel.h17061161.Hotel-Information) > > [New Orleans RV Resort & Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Seabrook-Villa.h70049164.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Royal-Sonesta-New-Orleans.h3387.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old No. 77 Hotel & Chandlery](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Old-No-77-Hotel-Chandlery.h40852.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental New Orleans by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-InterContinental-New-Orleans.h14550.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton New Orleans Riverside](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Hilton-New-Orleans-Riverside.h19716.Hotel-Information) > > [Chateau Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Chateau-Hotel.h1509687.Hotel-Information) > > [Quarter House](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Quarter-House.h27812449.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Westin-New-Orleans.h9637.Hotel-Information) > > [The Saint Hotel, New Orleans, French Quarter](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Saint-Hotel.h4896744.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus French Quarter Courtyard Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-French-Quarter-Courtyard-Hotel.h19617.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel St. Marie](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Hotel-St-Marie.h25823.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Wyndham-New-Orleans-French-Quarter.h10705.Hotel-Information) > > [New Orleans Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-New-Orleans-Marriott.h3326.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton New Orleans Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Sheraton-New-Orleans-Hotel.h6914.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-New-Orleans.h13394.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Royal Orleans Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Omni-Royal-Orleans-Hotel.h19423.Hotel-Information) > > [Drury Plaza Hotel New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Drury-Plaza-Hotel-New-Orleans.h454948.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Monteleone, New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Hotel-Monteleone.h8698.Hotel-Information) > > [The Eliza Jane, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Eliza-Jane.h1109410.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Astor-Crowne-Plaza-New-Orleans-French-Quarter.h878332.Hotel-Information) > > [The Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Roosevelt-New-Orleans.h2661313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Centric French Quarter](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-French-Quarter.h14429.Hotel-Information) > > [Bourbon Orleans Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Bourbon-Orleans-Hotel.h2969.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h454890.Hotel-Information) > > [French Market Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-French-Market-Inn.h6309.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo New Orleans French Quarter by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Royal-St-Charles-Hotel.h561327.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn New Orleans - Downtown Superdome by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-New-Orleans-Downtown-Superdome.h2856.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn FRENCH QUARTER-CHATEAU LEMOYNE by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-FRENCH-QUARTER-CHATEAU-LEMOYNE.h6806.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham New Orleans Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-New-Orleans-Downtown.h282692.Hotel-Information)
