The home is in a nice location, is very spacious, and as advertised, is very old. New Orleans is a very walkable city, however, the streetcar was nearby, Ubers do come quick and it is not far from anywhere interesting.
Leading up to the trip, when asking the host questions, his communication was short, often telling me to just look at the notes on the Airbnb listing instead of simply answering my questions, which I didn't like.
Was also not a fan of the insensitive wording in his house rule book referring to homeless people as "two legged animals" (as in "do not feed the animals"). I would hope this gross opinion could be kept to himself going forward...
The home is fine as a place to stay as you'll spend lots of time exploring the city.
