My wife, my dog, and I just had an excellent vacation in New Orleans thanks in large part to this sweet airbnb spot in the Irish Channel. Matt and Lital did an amazing job on the renovation of the rear apartment on their house. It's got plenty of space for a couple and maybe even a kid who could sleep on the futon. Although it's attached to their house, it's surprisingly quiet - we never heard them while we were there. The neighborhood is also quiet but is only a couple blocks from Magazine Street. There are plenty of good restaurants and shops within walking distance and it's a short Uber or bike ride to the French Quarter.
I can't say enough good things about Matt and Lital. They were super responsive and extremely helpful. There was one day when their AC unit went out and within an hour they had bought a couple of window units and hooked them up. We were very impressed with their friendliness, thoughtfulness, and hospitality. You really can't beat this deal for a nice place to stay in New Orleans. Huge bonus points for being pet-friendly!
