This was very different from the many places I have stayed. It was a room with a shared bathroom and the host was very present. The home is huge. The house pet, Lola, a very friendly dog, is also present. But despite the difference compared to others I felt very much at home. Communication is evident being they are home as well. The roommate I barely heard or seen. I would def stay again. Easy bus ride to Canal St which only after a few blocks u hit Bourbon St.
