We communicated with David via text messages prior to our arrival. He responded promptly each time and greeted us warmly. We enjoyed chatting with him as he showed us around the apartment and gave us suggestions for things to do and see. The apartment is well located for anyone wanting to explore the French Quarter (but not be right in the midst of the hubbub) and to enjoy hearing music at the various venues on Frenchman Street, all within easy walking distance. The apartment is creatively furnished and the photos are accurate for the look of the decor. The garden area is lush and inviting. My husband and I have a bit of a cleanliness fixation, but even so, I think the apartment is in need of a good, Southern "deep" spring cleaning. I know keeping things fresh in the humidity of New Orleans has to be a challenge and we made no complaint to David during our stay. Had we done so, I am confident he would have made every effort to address any of our concerns. So, lovely location for an exploration of New Orleans and recommended.
