Talmadge is extremely kind. When she found out that we were arriving into New Orleans earlier then check-in and leaving later than check-out she was nice enough to let us into the house early and leave late so that we did not have to drag around our luggage while exploring the city.
She also called to make sure that we knew how to put the heat on, something we were unsure of, and sent over the caretaker immediately when she found out we hadn't turned it on yet.
As many of her other reviews pointed out, she provides snacks for her guests, which is extremely thoughtful and kind as we were definitely not morning people and having breakfast at the house made it so much easier.
Although we did not need them, Talmadge also provides extra toothbrushes, razors, and a first aid kit for her guests in case you forget something.
The house is gorgeous. It is about 150 years old so has some of that old house charm. The entrance way and dining room both have chandeliers and the wrought iron handrails on the stairs were gorgeous.
This was our first time using Airbnb and our first time in New Orleans and I would say that both were a rounding success.
