This was our first experience with Airbnb and would do it again in a heartbeat. Communication with Tad prior to arrival was excellent. He met us on check in, showed us around the apartment, and spent time with us explaining the area shopping and dining and the best way to get around. The space is beautifully decorated and is well stocked. We lacked for nothing. For added security, the apartment has a coded locking system. Each morning we began the day with beignets at the neighborhood New Orleans Coffee and Beignet Co., followed by morning walks along St. Charles and Magazine Street. The neighborhood is picturesque, quiet and such a respite from the French Quarter madness. Parking is just a few steps from the front door. But mainly, we left the car parked and moved around the city by foot, trolley or Uber. It was a lovely, relaxed stay and, if your travels bring you to New Orleans, we would highly recommend Tad and Lainie and their beautiful apartment.
