This was my first experience on AirBnB and I wasn't exactly sure what I was signing up for here. It turned out to be an incredible experience! Judith was an incredible host that invite us into her home, added local color to our trip and made our stay in her home just perfect. It really helped me appreciate the difference between AirBnB vs. Hotel vs. HomeAway. The answer was simple for me...AirBnB presented an opportunity to visit a town, make a new friend, get a local's perspective on the city and feel like you are in someone's cozy home. I strongly recommend staying with Judith, since her home is on a very hip street away from the crowds of the French Quarters...yet close enough to hop on a street car and get there.
