In town for convention

Great option if you are in town for an event at the convention center. Bishop Arts is a fun walkable neighborhood and the street car is two or three stops to the convention center.

Just What Our Team Needed

I made the arrangements for our team to stay here while they were in town for a conference. Being the middleman, I found it very easy to work with Christopher. The team gave rave reviews for the property. It was great to have a community space for them to gather and debrief their time at the conference. That suite in the attic was a highlight for the two ladies who shared that area.

Beautiful house

Close location to downtown, great Bishop Arts district location with restaurants and shops. House is very clean, and accommodating. Live-in tenant down stairs is friendly but dog barks a lot at strangers. Driveway and parking is very narrow and difficult to navigating in poor weather.

From the beginning of our reservation it was really smooth the host reached out to me with instructions and a very warm greeting. The house is beautiful in a safe quiet neighborhood in a central location for travel convenience to the airport and popular attractions. Check in and checkout is simple! I highly recommend this location for mature adults and families. The home gives the essence of NOLA old BOLA we loved our stay as the host is gracious and accommodating

Great Location and Very Comfortable

Being just steps away from the electric streetcar stop made getting to downtown easy, fast, and cheap (free!!). Another nice touch was the big ice machine/dispenser. We were quite comfortable and the host was very accommodating.

Wonderful house!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Roux. The host was great with communication. The house was very nice and clean. Everything worked out very well. The only thing we were concerned about was the lady staying in the apartment below the house. We had small children with us and they walk very heavily. We were worried they were bothering her. Overall we had a great experience and would recommend to others!

Great stay, close to downtown!

A group of coworkers all stayed here for a conference that was at the OMNI. Although we didn't use the public transport, we did get uber's regularly and it was $7-$10 everytime we went somewhere (for a large group). I loved that each of us had our own bed. The beds were super comfortable. Location was great and easy to get to. Restaurant up the street, LaComida was AMAZING - highly recommend. Check in process/communication was super easy! Five stars!

Convenient spacious and nice

We came in town for a Bears cowboys game. The location is awesome as far as being convenient to everything. The beds are very comfortable. We had 8 of us and still had plenty of room. House is perfect for any groups and cost is well worth the money. The biggest feature was it was clean which is always a risk for any rental, no concerns on cleanliness at this one so book freely.

Good location, nice home

This house is definitely not "luxury," but it is very comfortable and in a good location for bars/restaurants and to grab a quick ride share or trolley to downtown. Road noise is definitely a concern if you need quiet to sleep. It's a busy road, and there were sirens and car noises all night. Chris was very responsive & helpful, but there were quite a few small issues with home that one wouldn't expect in a luxury space. As many others said in their reviews, we also had an issue getting into home upon arrival, so that lock needs to be addressed. Overall it was a nice space that worked well for our small group of adults.

Weekend in Dallas

We had a good stay although I felt the towels and shower curtains could have been a bit cleaner. All in all the house was fine, it has the ability to sleep a solid number of people and I believe everyone would be comfortable. The arts district is super close and there are some great restaurants there. Additionally downtown Dallas is very easy to get to and the highways are very accessible.

Cozy in Dallas!

We spent a cozy weekend here in January with friends and it was terrific. My husband is an amateur chef and was surprised at how well equipped the kitchen was. The house is very cute and comfortable inside and was a perfect small group setting. The only caveat is that the house is located in an "up-and-coming" neighborhood on a main street with lots of traffic. You won't want to go out walking in the evenings. Bring earbuds for those who sleep on the street side of the house. Neither of these issues were a problem for our crew because we either stayed inside the whole time or drove to the nearby Bishop Arts District, which was super cute and has great restaurants. Highly recommend!

Great Place in Bishop Arts District

This is an AWESOME location and place to stay. We were in Dallas for my daughter's graduation from SMU so EVERYONE was with us. We had 9 adults staying in the house and there was plenty of room to spread out - everyone had their own space and bedroom. The bathrooms were plentiful and enough hot water for all of us to take showers in the morning. I did have to wash towels a couple of times but the washer and dryer are easy to use. The host, Chris, is AMAZING - easy to chat with and available for any questions that you might have.

Work Trip

Myself and several colleagues were in Dallas for a conference. The location of the house was a short distance from the Sheraton Conference Center and restaurants and shops in the Bishop Arts District. We had trouble getting the lock to open when we first arrived at the house, but the owner was extremely responsive and got us in the house as soon as possible. The house was clean, and the pictures in the listing were accurate. We had plenty of room to spread out when we needed to get some work done. There were also times we all needed to work together, and the living room and dining room were great spaces for everyone to come together. Overall, we had a great experience.

Perfect for our group!

We had a group of 13 people coming from all over for a 4 day girls trip. This home was perfect for our group and our trip. The home was clean, spacious, full of all amenities listed, and we were easily able to instacart snacks and drinks for the weekend. Instructions were left for us and detailed all expectations which were easy to follow. We were close to all of the places we wanted to get to and just a quick drive. Christopher made sure to check in to see if we needed anything and offer recommendations. Loved Dallas and absolutely will be back and would stay at the Roux house again!

Perfect for Bishop Arts and access to downtown Dallas!

This property is very well maintained, clean, and spacious. Chris is very hands on and is always accessible. We added an additional night and Chris was extremely easy to work with. There is a great diner directly down the street and we were please with the location as you can walk to the Bishop Arts section although at times. we opted for an uber. The beds were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. I look forward to going for another visit in the future. Thanks again.

Cozy

The home is charming and quaint. There were plenty beds for our party of 5. My friends really liked the colors upstairs and the home. It made them feel like they were at there Mom’s home. The windows in the second floor bathroom were really cute. The only few downfalls were the smell of the home. It smelled like a dog kennel and the tenant downstairs was unexpected. The tenant had dogs out each time we came or left and they barked and jumped a lot. We feared they would be able to jump the fence. The parking is also tight. You have to drive down a curving steep driveway and then maneuver around the various parked vehicles if you have more than one. In our case we had four vehicles and it was tough to pull in or out once parked. The home had amenities including linens for the stay. The big turnoff for us was the bad odor. We would suggest a couple of throws when you are in the living room. It gets a bit chilly. The proximity to downtown was great. All of our events were downtown so we could just drive down Zang and back into downtown in a few minutes. The owner communicated daily which felt good. We knew he wanted the stay to be pleasant for us and we appreciated his check ins.

About the host

Hosted by Christopher Averite

Host profile image
As the current owner from New Orleans I decided to turn our personal home of over 10 years into an Airbnb and dedicate it to my late dachshunds Beaux and Roux. We could not think of a better tribute to our dearly missed fur-babies and decided to call it "The Roux House". I'm proud of being from New Orleans and truly enjoyed decorating the home with a New Orleans vibe. I've taken pride in ownership of the home over the past 10+ years.

Why they chose this property

Based on the location and the growing tourism in the area we decided to move out and turn our home into an Airbnb. You will not be disappointed with the location of the home and the multitude of local attractions.

What makes this property unique

We were told by a nephew of the original owner that she was a girlfriend of Jack Ruby. As a child he said that he has a photo with himself and Jack Ruby in front of the grand piano in our living room! If you stand in our front yard and look across the street to your left you will see a red roof house which was the home of Lee Harvey Oswald. A brief walk or trolley ride to the desirable Bishop Arts District. You will not be disappointed with the shopping and restaurants available to you.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
