This is a review I write with trepidation as Matt's house is a real gem and we want to go back it is so perfect for what we needed.
He is a great host and texted back and forth when our plane was delayed by two hours. He provided us with a list of things to do and see in the city.
The house itself is really beautifully done and is like someone's home not just a place to stay. We had the run of the house with a living, dining room and a full completely equipped kitchen including a washer and dryer. Matt had stocked the fridge with bagels, juice, cream cheese and jam so it was great to be able to make your own breakfast and what made it even better is the table and chairs on the big front porch where we ate our breakfast. if you want to go out for coffee and beignets there is a 24 hour restaurant called the Morning Call in nearby City Park whose beignets are almost as good as the Cafe Du Monde without having to stand in line.
We had a problem with the hot water and after texting Matt he was at the door to fix it immediately and his Dad was a moment later. The ice maker was not working and his dad fixed it and was going to go and get us a bag of ice as it would take time to restock the ice. I told him not to bother. We had a great discussion with them about NOLA 'S history and culture before they left. Matt lives in a separate apartment at the back of the house so the house is very private .
The beds were really comfortable and the full bathroom was immaculate with lots of towels.
Our only regret is that we didn't get to see Matt who is a musician play but after busy days we just ran out of steam.
The location is very central and we used the really friendly drivers of Uber to get around although we did have a vehicle which we parked in front of the house.
You don't need to read any other reviews just book his place right away. You will be happy you did. We are already thinking about coming back again and you can be sure we will be booking early. Thanks Matt for everything and we hope to see you again. The next time we will plan an easy day so we can stay up late. Norm and Laurie
