The bywater Bed & Breakfast in New Orleans is located in a private home in a traditional late Victorian "double shotgun" cottage furnished with contemporary and antique furniture and the owner's collection of 20th centry Louisiana folk art. It is located just a short distance from the French Quarter and other tourist attractions. The Faubourg Marigny neighborhood is nearby; music clubs, galleries, artists' studios, and restaurants are spread throughout Bywater and the Marigny.
