I traveled with my family as a group of four and stayed for five nights for Memorial weekend. The place is very comfy with all the necessary supplies that you might need. The arts and arrangement of the room really made us feel like home. Russell and Penelope welcomed and contacted us ahead of our travel to ensure things were okay. I got good tips and recommendations from Russell and he always replied to my msgs promptly. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, good for people who need quality sleep. We used ferry to get to the attractions for the first few days of our trip and figured to rely on uber later on. Because visiting NOLA really needs a lot of walking and after a day's strolling around it's kind of tiring to walk from ferry terminal to home. I think it's definitely a better choice than staying near the noisy and sketchy french quarter. We really loved our first Airbnb experience, thank you Russell and Penelope!
