Andy's place is a fantastic value. It is about a 20 minute walk from there up to the south end of the French quarter and close to many conference hotels; it is also walking distance to the Garden district and Magazine St. We took Andy's advice and walked during the day, but took ubers/lyfts home at night to avoid walking through the homeless encampments a few blocks away (granted we were never approached by anyone in these areas; this was just a precaution). We felt completely safe staying at the Airbnb, and we walked everywhere during the day. Andy was quick to respond to messages, and his place has everything you need. It was fantastic having two full bathrooms, and it was a more pleasant trip to have the full apartment space--including Andy's great photographs/art. Check-in and check-out were easy--thanks to Andy's crystal clear instructions. Andy is also exceptionally kind and flexible regarding late check-outs, which we deeply appreciated. Overall, we would stay here again and recommend Andy's place to friends!
