The host, Buchi, was a very welcoming and warm host. She introduced us to the place and have us directions. The place itself if aesthetically pleasing. The apartment is all white which is really accented by the natural lighting coming from the various window. The apartment does not have a ceiling but I personally think it adds on to the apartment, and in a way, it balances the all white. The location of the apartment is extremely convenient as it is two blocks away from Canal Street which would put you on route to Bourbon Street or wherever you desire to go. The apartment is located Downtown so noice during nightime is expected. Great experience overall!
