The Big Easy

The Big Easy is managed by the architecture company that designed the entire building, as well as the living units. This studio apartment is decked out with custom-made furniture, exposed concrete walls, and industrial flooring, to create an artistic loft-like space. We love the floor-to-ceiling windows and the private balcony is an added bonus. Overall, the minimalist approach might not appeal to all, but if you’re looking for a balance between home comforts and hotel-like luxuries, this is a great spot for you.

Home truths:
*This is a studio apartment, so the space is rather small
*There is only a kitchenette (no oven, no dishwasher)
*When we visited, there was a lot of construction going on nearby – this should only be a temporary situation, but please be aware that there may be construction noise
*This is a rental unit and lacks that homely touch, so if you are looking for a very characterful stay, we recommend looking elsewhere
*There is no washer/dryer in this unit, but guests can use the building’s communal laundry facility at an extra cost
*This south-facing apartment can get pretty warm in the summers and there is no AC
*There is no sofa
