My stay at Hollis’ place was absolutely wonderful! I was only in town for a day so stayed just one night, but I would definitely come back for a longer stay. I was coming into town in really bad weather - Hollis actually called me to help me get into the area safely and navigate the roads in the weather, and talked me through checking in. I felt incredibly safe at his AirBnb as a young woman traveling solo.
The place was beautiful and clean, even better than the photos! I felt super comfortable and safe, especially with his home security and camera setup. There were other guests but never had an issue with sharing a bathroom or kitchen/living room, everything was quiet and everyone was very clean and respectful of the space. The home was very close to everything I needed to get to and Hollis gave me detailed tips and tricks for getting around town and places to do and see. If you have a chance, definitely take a tour from him as well - he is obviously knowledgeable of the area and loves New Orleans deeply. Take advantage of his food recommendations - he knows what he’s talking about.
Highly recommend Hollis’ place, and I will definitely try to stay there in the future if he isn’t completely booked up!
