Short drive from the Airport around 20,Minutes. Ron the owner of the apartment kindly had reserved a parking space for our car. Apartment was very well presented and spacious for our needs. Ron was very helpful in recommending local Restaurants and places to go and see. Apartment has all the amenities that you would need & a nice Hot Tub should you wish for a Dip. Overall very good and if in New Orleans would stay again.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, never having visited New Orleans before. My stay couldn’t have been better! Ron and Mark are very personable hosts. Very helpful with suggestions about dining and directions. I attended every Mardi Gras parade possible, all within walking distance of the unit. Shopping was great and food choices excellent. I would definitely stay there again!

We enjoyed our stay at this location. It had everything to offer that we wanted. Close proximity to all that we wanted while visiting New Orleans. If Bourbon Street is not your thing, many other things to do from this local. Ron was a great host and made 2 gals feel welcome, and comfortable during our first visit.

Mark and Ron were amazing. This unit was has an amazing history and character. We were so pleased that Ron took time out of his day to give us the history of the home, provide us with the ins and outs of the neighborhood, and helped us to locate local hidden gems. It's the perfect spot to walk to the quarter (if that's your interest) or just stay in the Marigny. We can't wait to come back!!!!

This is a cozy and comfortable home in a wonderful neighborhood. Close to the French Quarter, and close to great restaurants and jazz clubs. Frenchman’s Street is a short walk, and the Spotted Cat jazz club is one of New Orlean’s hidden gems. If you like to walk, there’s no need for a car to get around. Ron and Mark are great hosts, and you will not be disappointed with their clean, well equipped home!

We were here for a long weekend to celebrate our anniversary. The location is a short walk to both Frenchman Street and the French Quarter. Ron and Mark were excellent hosts, greeting us upon arrival and providing recommendations on places to visit and eat. They were also quick to respond to any questions we had. The accommodations were perfect with every amenity that we could want. We will certainly stay again on our next visit to NOLA.

High reviews to the owners of this property. Good location, very accomodating owners who go way and beyond to make your stay pleasurable. Very nice house. We will definitely come back again next time we visit.

Ron and Mark bring the charm and hospitality you would expect when visiting close family. The house is in a quiet neighborhood within footsteps of music, shopping and food. What a comfortable place to come back to after a long day out in the city. The hot tub was such an added bonus to wind down each evening. We truly enjoyed getting to spend some time with Ron and Mark before we left and can’t wait to come back and stay with them again.
5.0
Ron is a wonderful host and the house is beautifully decorated and supremely comfortable.
The bed is better than mine at home, and the sheets were fabulous.
This is our second stay here and we can not recommend it enough.

The best place in the greatest neighborhood in New Orleans!

This place is great! Location, decor, hosts…all of it! Ron is by far the kindest host we’ve met. We were able to walk nearly everywhere we wanted. Tons of shops, restaurants/bars, and grocery store close by.
A must stay if coming to NOLA.

This was our third stay with Ron and Mark and always it was fantastic. Their home is beautiful, clean and in the perfect location. Ron is an amazing host and very quick to respond. We enjoyed a wonderful week of “living like a local” thanks to him and Mark.
5.0
This was our first visit to the City. Ron was very welcoming and accommodating. He made sure we were comfortable and went through all the needed information and recommendations even though our flight was delayed and we didn't get in until late. The private backyard and hot tub was very relaxing. It was nice having a full kitchen and laundry available and a nice grocery within a few blocks. The neighborhood was close to everything we wanted to visit and easily walkable. I'd highly recommend.

My friend and I had a very comfortable stay in Ron’s property. It’s in a great location - close to the action in the French Quarter while being in a pretty, quiet neighborhood. The hot tub was a added bonus.
5.0
Ron was a fabulous host; greeted us upon arrival with impeccable Southern hospitality. This gem of a home is beautifully appointed and well furnished without being fussy. Kitchen had all the basics. Hottub and very private oasis was a luxurious bonus. The neighborhood is perfectly located - close to the action but tucked away in a quiet, safe area. We were able to walk to the grocery store, Frenchman Street and the Quarter easily. We will definitely be back! Thanks Ron and Marc! 💜

The Host are simply amazing. Location is incredible and in walking distance to everything if you are a walker.. Hot tub was the icying on the cake.This was literally our home away from home. If you are looking for a rental that is convenient yet quite and away from the noise of the city. This is the place for you!!!
5.0
Like many before have said, this place is a true gem. The home itself is outstanding: beautiful, clean, and well-appointed. We had everything we needed. The hot tub was great even in the warm summer weather and perfect after a day of walking. The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. My personal favorite was the courtyard- it felt like my own private oasis!
Ron and Mark are incredibly kind and helpful hosts- those rare sort of people who are clearly just good humans and love what they do. They were kind enough to give us all kinds of recommendations and gave us a great history of
the neighborhood. Heck, my partner and I would come back just to spend more time with them!
All of this and it’s just a few minute’s walk to all the fun and excitement of the French Quarter. The home itself is located in a very quiet and safe area- I never felt afraid for my safety at any time on the trip.
My best advice- BOOK IT! I will be recommending this place to anyone traveling to New Orleans and will stay nowhere else when I come back again!
5.0
We loved our stay with Ron & Marc - so considerate & kind. Upon arrival Ron greeted us and gave us an informative tour and very useful dining suggestions. The property itself is immaculate and charming. Bed is comfy with wonderful linens and good pillows. When the coffeemaker went on the Fritz, Ron was there hours later with a new one! I can’t say enough about this property - we’ll be back. Convenient to the Quarter, Frenchmen’s St. and groceries, bakeries, coffee shops all within walking distance.
5.0
Ron and Mark were amazing hosts - very hands on and communicative throughout our stay. The place was very clean and adorable and met our needs 100%. It was super hot when we were there and the AC really held up as well. The neighborhood is pretty safe and walkable to both Frenchman St and the French Quarter. Highly recommend!!

My husband and I loved the home, amazing details and Nee Orleans feel. I spent a lot of time in back patio which is a little oasis. Ron was an excellent host and ver accommodating. Would definitely recommend for a couple!
5.0
If you're tired of staying at properties where your relationship with the host is principally corporate, then this is the place for you. R&M make your stay local and personal. You can tell they care about your experience, because they do whatever they can to make it a good one. Highly recommend!
5.0
From the moment we booked this unit, we knew it was going to be perfect. Ron and Mark were absolutely wonderful hosts who did everything they could to make us feel at home. The unit itself is filled with character and wonderful touches of New Orleans scattered throughout. The location was perfect for our weekend here for Jazzfest.
We loved hanging out in the garden at the end of our days, and the Jacuzzi was absolutely amazing!
If you make a decision to stay here, you will certainly not regret it!
5.0
A beautiful home and such nice, accommodating hosts! Ron welcomed us during our check in. The place was perfect. The house is perfectly located and the place itself had everything we needed for a short 3 night stay - coffee, shampoo, soap and towels and more. The king bed is very comfortable and appreciated after a full day of walking. We didn’t use the popular hot tub but if we make our way back there one day, we will! I would definitely recommend a stay at this place. :)

This was a Bestie trip and our first time to New Orleans. We were able to check in a little earlier upon arrival. We were greeted by Ron who sat down with us, told us about the history of the cottage, and went over a map with places to go and not to go. First of all, the cottage is beautiful. You felt at home the second you walked through the door. Ron and Mark were both amazing hosts. We enjoyed spending some time with them, they are both simply wonderful! The cottage is in a great location, close enough to walk to great restaurants and shops, and far enough to not hear the craziness of Bourbon St.
We only used our rental car a couple times, and each time Ron put cones out to save our parking spot. We always felt safe knowing we had Ron & Mark next door.
It was hotter than we expected it to be during the day, so we only used the hot tub once, but it was great! It was nice to come “home” and completely relax! It was nice having Ron & Mark see us off at the end of our trip. Our first trip to New Orleans was made all that more special because of Ron & Mark’s warmth, kindness, and genuineness! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!! Everything was perfect!!

Ron was a perfect host. We loved our stay in the Marigny. Great food, close to everything and the house was super comfy. Thank you! We will be back!❤️

Fabulous from start to finish! Ron met us on arrival to welcome us and give us the run down. He stayed in touch via text throughout our visit, and he even brought over bread and fresh strawberries. Great host! The accommodations were clean and full of charm. The hot tub was wonderful after sightseeing or going out. The location is very convenient to Frenchman Street and the French Quarter. We would definitely stay here again.
5.0
The property & place are not only charming and beautiful but set in an ideal location. We really enjoyed hearing about its history from Ron who was there to greet us ( also uber-nice). He's an excellent host & had great recommendations. Would definitely come back for another visit and recommend this to anyone !!
5.0
This was one of the best places we’ve ever stayed: A NOLA decorated apartment; a great location; fantastic hosts; comfortable bed; well stocked kitchen; reasonable cost; a terrific hot tub surrounded by plants. I can’t say enough good and I would recommend anyone visiting New Orleans to stay here.
5.0
Very close to Frenchman St and Bourbon St.
The Rampart trolley line was not running due to damage at the tracks when the Hard Rock hotel collapsed a couple of years ago. We just took the bus when we went to Canal St.
The bed is very comfortable!
They have spice blend, salt, pepper, oil (basics needed for cooking). Robert's Fresh Market is 0.3 miles away and is a very good grocery store. The store has a good selection of wine, beer, and spirits along with a wonderful hot food bar and salad bar.
The house was perfect for us and we loved the hot tub! The owners live right next door and are quick to respond. We only wish they had a TV in the front sitting room, instead of a mirror over the fake fireplace. There is a TV in the bedroom, but we like to chill once in awhile and catch a little TV while sitting on a couch. Other than that, the place is perfect!

My friend and I stayed at Ron’s place as an early 30th birthday celebration the weekend after Mardi Gras. The location is quiet but a short walk to Frenchman St that has plenty of live music, an art bazaar, bars, etc and you are about 15 min walk from the French quarter night life. Ron’s place is very clean and has everything you need for your stay including the comfiest bed and hot tub to relax in after walking around NOLA all day. Ron greets you and provides you with history and recommendations for food - much appreciated! Highly recommend staying here if you are a couple or a group of 2-3 friends looking to enjoy Nola but want a comfy and quiet place to return to at the end of your day.

This property is in a fantastic location. The king size bed is GREAT as is the hot tub. Lots of New Orleans charm throughout. Ron also went out of his way to help us out with packages that arrived before we did. I highly recommend them as hosts!

This is our second time staying here and we would come back again because the location is great, the hosts are lovely, and the house is beautiful.

This is our new favorite place to stay in Marigny. Hosts were excellent with communication, amenities were great and the location is perfect to walk everywhere. We go to New Orleans every couple of years, and have stayed all over the neighborhood. This was the best experience overall, can't recommend it enough!
5.0
We spent four nights at at Ron and Mark’s place in New Orleans and had an amazing time! Ron met us upon arrival and spent time telling us about the house and it’s history. The house is lovely and very comfortable. The beautiful decor sets the tone and lets you know that you are in a special place. The bed is very comfortable and has a set of steps that I had to use since it’s so tall. The kitchen was well-equipped, as was the bathroom. The hot tub was was the perfect place to end the day after long days of sightseeing. Ron also went over a map of the area and had restaurant suggestions, which was very helpful since this was our first visit to the city. The house was within walking distance of most of the attractions in the area, but far enough out that it was extremely quiet. We would not hesitate to stay there again!
