There is not enough space to write about Carmen and her place--both which were amazing! Carmen is easy to communicate with and she takes care of her guests! I messaged her several times and she was very quick to respond. She even took the time to give us the names of places to eat in New Orleans where the locals go.
When you arrive at Carmen's place you will have need for nothing-- at least you shouldn't. I've never been to an airbnb like hers. Cold water in the fridge, a great selection of coffee and a cabinet full of snacks! The bathroom was well stocked with supplies, super soft towels and washcloths, and even Ibuprofen.
The beds were great for us. Both me and my wife loved the pillows...and I knew I couldn't get away with stealing them.
The front room was very relaxing with a sofa, t.v. , desk and even a record player. I loved the sliding wood doors between the front and middle room. There was a small desk with needle and thread in the drawers and a few other things you might need.
The location is great! It's only 1.5 miles to the French Quarter. We made the mistake of driving into the quarter at 9:00 on a Friday evening only to go back to the house and call an Uber.
There are several bars in the neighborhood as well as several popular restaurants and no, I'm not talking about Popeye's.
If you are looking for privacy, even Carmen was not seen unless we happened to be coming home or leaving at the same time.
Overall, this is a wonderful place to stay. It's a nice and quiet neighborhood. Carmen should be a super host if she is not already. However, there is one mistake Carmen made and that was leaving a box of Little Debbie Nutty Buddy's for me to snack on. Sorry for only leaving one. --Matt Wyatt
