This was a lovely stay. If you want a laid-back cultural experience in a historical southern home, this is for you. It is not a super fancy hotel with a lot of amenities, but rather a quiet, relaxing stay. I loved being in the center of things; next to the bike trail, across the street from the park, brew pub, an old-fashioned grocery story, and down the street from the eccentric Abita Mystery House. We did, however, wonder why on-line photos suggested there was a downstairs common area, when it was locked and we had no access. Also, the area underneath the porch was littered with junk and could’ve been nicer. All in all, we loved it, but I think the property has much bigger potential. Also, we got a note on our car for parking in the back lot where we were supposed to park.
