Danielle is a wonderful host who is super friendly and willing to spend time chatting with you. We got some great recommendations from her. The hosts had rented out their place upstairs and were staying in one of the other rooms on the same floor, so we were able to interact with Danielle more. Devin provides an awesome written guide to the city that has some amazing suggestions in it, particularly for food. I would suggest visiting ruby slipper for breakfast as it was absolutely delicious and is a very short walk away! I would say that the photos are outdated as the place was not quite as clean and tidy as they suggest. The hosts state in the guide that they do a general clean once a week, so perhaps we came in between cleans. Other reviews suggested it, but I would really recommend bringing your own towels. Danielle explained that the humidity in NOLA makes it difficult to keep things dry and fresh. Stella the dog was cute and she joined my pal on the sofa on a couple of mornings for company! RE location, the hosts suggest you get a cab back after dark and as two women, we would agree. During the day was fine, but at night, we didn't want to chance it. It's very close to all the action on frenchmen street so the location is super convenient, but we also found it was quiet in the evenings as you're further out the way. The house is an old one and that comes with character...this means squeaky floors and zero sound proofing! If you're a light sleeper, the general house noise might bother you. Devin was great about ensuring other guests were quiet after 11 though (there were some guests above us and you can literally hear entire conversations) so sleeping was not an issue for me. I think if you're used to staying in hostels or shared airbnbs, this place is a good choice and the price is decent for NOLA!
