Mia made us feel very welcome when she greeted us on our arrival. She was very knowledgeable about the local area and provided us with good recommendations for restaurants and getting around New Orleans. The loft apartment was great, a very unique space with a good kitchen and even a well-stocked bar. The bathroom was cool, with a jacuzzi and a great shower. Mia was kind enough to check in on us from time to time, providing fresh towels in the middle of our stay and lending us bikes to use to get around the city. We LOVED being close to Magazine St and would recommend this area for visitors to New Orleans, it gave us a different - more "local" - experience than staying downtown would have. We felt safe in this area walking to and from restaurants/supermarket at night. All in all a very enjoyable stay in a great city!
