Sweet Intimate Hideaway
We loved this cute home away from home. Really nice courtyard and canopy of Magnolia trees and tropical palms make you feel like you are in a really cool tree house. Rita is the perfect host, friendly and communicative. The location was about a 15 minute walk from the French Quarter. Map quest will tell you to take Peters Street, don't do it, super sketchy area. Stick to the residential areas. We located about 10 minutes walking distance to Frenchmen Street which is wonderful. The stay is unique because it has a spiral staircase and loft type bedroom with windows that open for a nice view of the courtyard. It's so quiet you can hear the water fountains too. I would recommend this stay for a couple who can get around pretty well as the staircase is suited for the more agile types. Thank you!

Apartment Exactly as Advertised
This is a very small unit, but you can make it work, even for a long stay. There is a narrow staircase, but it's well supported with rails to hold onto, but I would not recommend this unit for anyone with compromised mobility. The location is great, especially if you want to be in the Marigny/Bywater area. Communication with the owner was excellent, and the unit was immaculate, with some nice extras added. There are two cats on the property, but they will leave you alone. The outdoor seating area, which extends the apt. a bit, is lovely.

Cute place, good location
This guesthouse is as described. Very cute and clean. It is a small space, but that’s all we needed! Very good location with easy access to a lot of cute spots and good food!

Cute, quiet retreat in the perfect location
This is the perfect spot to stay in NOLA. It’s close enough to the French Quarter to walk, but far enough away to be quiet. Rita has created a calm oasis in the back where we enjoyed just sitting and talking. Rita was a wonderful host. Didn’t intrude, but was available if we had questions or needed anything. We would definitely stay again. One recommendation would be to add a small table or shelf on the other side of the bed for those who like to have a glass of water for during the night.

Wonderful hideaway!
We loved our stay in this charming, cozy spot. The outdoor seating area was lovely and we loved the upstairs bedroom. Rita was a great host and check in/check out could not have been easier. Thank you for helping make our trip to New Orleans perfect!

Oasis near the city
We loved our stay at Rita's guest house. Small place, perfect for a young couple looking to spend days exploring the city and have a place to come back and relax. Cable tv, AC, fan upstairs made the stay comfortable. The 15-20min walk to Frenchman/French quarter helped us get our vacation 'exercise' in, and was very manageable. LOVED Bacchanal restaurant, though we saved that for last since it is not near the rest of the city activities. Plenty of cute cafes and restaurants nearby as well, including a great price for happy hour at the nearby Franklin, and also loved the St Roch Market. Walking in Crescent park was fun, and doing a self-guided walking tour of the historical homes in Garden District is a MUST! Easy to find some on google. Loved NOLA and Rita's place, and can't wait to come back again!

Wonderful host, charming house
I can’t say enough good things about Rita’s sweet little guest house and her warm hospitality. The house is in the rear of the main house, with a mini fridge and microwave in the downstairs area, and a little bathroom to the right. Spiral steps go up to a comfortable bed. Small but cleverly laid out and comfortable for us, two adults at 6’4 and 5’6. Rita is kind and responsive. We will definitely be staying here in return visits to NOLA. It contributed to a great visit :)

Hip, Cozy, Comfortable and Quiet in the Marigny
Location is Prime and Quiet enough to ensure you'll get your Zzzzz's. Stroll to Cake Cafe for breakfast. Head to Paladar 511 for a tasty dinner. Frenchman is easily within reach as well as all the fast-changing updates on St Claude. Guest House is a gem of design, with micro-detail to efficiency and economy. It all works beautifully. Host is as accommodating as can be. Home run for any NOLA traveler.

All of the details make it a superior stay!
My partner and I have booked with Rita for years now. Whether we're in the back guest house or the front apartment we know we will be comfortable! The spaces are impeccably kept, beds are comfy, needs are anticipated and the location can't be beat! If you want to be a tourist you're within walking distance of the French Quarter. If you want to chill-out with the locals you're just blocks away from the action. I especially love it's location removed from the street-- makes decompressing all that much easier. There's a lovely small area to get some sun and drink some coffee and watch the koi. Put all of this together and it makes this a great place for relaxation in a city that can be a non-stop party. Can't wait to go back!

Tiny but clean, comfortable and romantic
We would definitely stay here again. Friendly, colorful, quiet neighborhood. It is a few blocks to the cable car and not far from the French Quarter yet we realized Marigny neighborhood has a lot to offer. We especially liked Silk Road and Marigny Brassiere for dinners and New Orleans Cake Cafe and Press Street Station for breakfast. For live music we loved Maison and The Spotted Cat. The winding staircase is very narrow and steep - (near hybrid of stairs and a ladder) so that may be challenging or annoying to some (especially to get from bed to bathroom in the middle of the night) but for a few nights stay for us it was fine. The kitchen is more for heating leftovers in the microwave or making coffee/tea but it is New Orleans. Save your money and EAT OUT. My only regret on that is that we should have sought out cheaper places to eat to as not totally add to the neighborhood gentrification. Rita was available and friendly when we needed her but otherwise she left us alone which we liked. Look at a map of the trolley before you go and you'll realize how convenient it is to get around. If you tend to bicker a lot and NEED SPACE in your house frequently from your mate do realize this tiny guesthouse may prove challenging. :-)
