Property Information
This spacious historic home has been beautifully renovated into a licensed B&B to be the perfect place for your group in New Orleans. Check out our reviews - people love staying with us! Located in lively Mid-City, the Okra Inn is about 10 minutes from the French Quarter, 1 mile from City Park, and 4 blocks from the Canal Streetcar line. We have off-street parking for up to 3 vehicles and are just minutes off the interstate. We love New Orleans and we think that once you stay here, you will too!
THE SPACE
The Inn is a large camelback style home which has recently been expanded and renovated into a licensed bed & breakfast. During the renovation we took great care to keep the distinctively New Orleanian character of the home and prevent it from being another bland, forgettable rental space. The house features 12-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, beautiful molding, and a jazzy blend of colors. Upstairs are six bedrooms and four full bathrooms, two of which are located in the master bedrooms and two off the halls, so there's plenty of room for your group of up to 12 guests. Downstairs is a spacious living room, dining room, and stocked kitchen, as well as another half bathroom. The rear of the building holds off-street parking for up to 3 vehicles, as well as a breezy back porch overlooking a huge back yard. In addition to
central air, each bedroom in the home has a ceiling fan. Pretty much everyone who stays with us says they think the space is amazing; come see why!
KITCHEN AMENITIES
Each kitchen is equipped with dishes, silverware, pots, pans, glassware
and other kitchen and cooking basics, as well as salt/pepper, oil and
spices. Each kitchen has a full size refrigerator/freezer, gas range and
oven, dishwasher, microwave and toaster. There is also a coffee bar set
up in each kitchen with a drip coffee maker and coffee, sugar and creamer
provided.
WIFI
A mesh wifi
system allows for high speed internet throughout the home.
GUEST ACCESS
Everything pictured and mentioned in these listings is for guests renting the space. We do live in the house, within a separate unit. We will share the back yard and parking areas and will see your group coming and going, but we give our guests freedom within the rental space.
Firearms are strictly prohibited. Active duty military and law
enforcement officers may contact us at the time of booking regarding possible exceptions to
this policy. Any exceptions will be granted at our sole discretion.
Smoking is not allowed in the house but is allowed on front and back porches.
We do feel strongly about being respectful of neighbors. We ask that guests watch noise levels after 10pm on weeknights and after 11pm on weekends, especially outside. We do not allow any outside guests to stay past these hours. In general, please ask before your stay if you are planning on hosting any sort of gathering.
We ask guests to treat the front porch as closed after 8pm since it is very close to where our baby sleeps.
