Thomas has a great place. The front porch area is wonderfully private to sit out and enjoy the sounds of New Orleans. The way Thomas has set his place up, it is like an oasis compared to the houses surrounding. The apartment he offers up is spacious with the two bedrooms and kitchen. For three of us staying a week, we didn't feel cramped at all, even on our day in before our trip home. The people in his neighborhood are friendly and also wave or say hello. As of the time of our trip, there was a great deal of construction and remodels happening. Even with all of the work during the week, it was still quiet and well worth the trip for us to get away. The interior of the house allows for quiet evenings watching the television with his netflix or amazon video services offered with the stay. Uber drivers are always available within 5 minutes, even during week days for trips outside of walking range. There are no regrets from renting Thomas' place for a week, and would hope to do so again upon a future return to the city!
