This is our second stay in this beautiful home. We came back because the location and amenities are perfect for us and our host was very friendly. Honestly, we couldn't wait to return! This second visit was marked by a few personal emergencies and Ben was so great about accommodating changes and answering my questions; he was always very fast to respond and made feel relaxed about what was a difficult situation back home. The place was as wonderful as the first time and included some great new improvements like Sonos speakers throughout the home and some very comfy new patio furniture on the incredible balcony. I love to sit on the balcony between outings and enjoy the street scenes down below: a brass band matching by, a wedding party across the street and the lively banter of locals and tourists alike. There's a cozy bar on the corner and a couple blocks away is a fun 24hr diner where we ate breakfast several times. The The Gumbo Shop is two blocks away, locally owned and tasty food. Ben's place is immaculate and made me want to come home and clean my own house! We loved the "fire light" in the fireplace, the fabulous art and of course the best location for us to access attractions like museums, Jackson Square, the nearby grocery and great local food and shops. Also very easy to catch the streetcar and enjoy the rest of this fabulous city. We will be back as soon as we can, we love our home away from home in New Orleans!
