Thomas and Mai's place was lovely, well appointed and clean, and located in a wonderful, vibrant and very walkable neighborhood. The loft itself was cozy and a bit reminiscent of apartments in Paris. The living and kitchen areas were surprisingly spacious and the front porch was a big plus too and very enjoyable to hang out on. Thomas was super accommodating about working with our early check in request and very communicative and friendly. He also offered some great tips both for how to get around the city and areas to visit. Our visit fell during Mardi Gras season, and this apartment was a great refuge to come back to for some quiet time after being surrounded by parades and revelers during the days.
