This was a great house for our two families that stayed here with our dogs. The house was wonderful, but I could tell there had been high use. The sliding barn door handle needed a screw, so the handle could do circles. All of the cabinet doors/drawers in the kitchen had to be slowly closed otherwise they wouldn't close. I imagine the kitchen had everything you could need at one point, but I struggled to find a large bowl to make a Cesar Salad, so I had to use a large pot. The shower in the master bedroom did not have hot water, but the tub did, so it meant we had to take baths or use one of the other two showers, but that wasn't convenient with ten people total. We also happened to stay the couple of nights they were doing street work which started at 6:00a.m. two days in a row. Early wake up calls with pounding.
I am providing a lot of information, but overall this was a PERFECT house for two families of five (total of ten) and our beloved dogs. It was convenient to get to the French Quarter (straight down Canal Street with the streetcar), the airport, and a walkable neighborhood (took less than 7 minutes to walk to Whole Foods or a neighborhood local restaurant bar).
There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out in the house or in the backyard.
We would TOTALLY stay here again, but I do hope that the kitchens materials are reviewed/refreshed to ensure everything that is needed to cook for a large group is present.
