This was our first experience using Airbnb, and it was outstanding! Michael was a terrific host. He walked us through the space when we arrived and let us know how everything worked and a little bit about the area.

We walked everywhere, day and night, and never felt unsafe. The apartment is very close to the French Quarter, and streetcars if you want to see attractions in other parts of the city (i.e. the WWII Museum, Garden District, Superdome, etc.). There may be concerns about what part of town an Airbnb is in for first time travelers to New Orleans, but there should be no concerns about this location. My favorite part of the trip happened at night on the way back to the apartment, when we came across a group of kids playing horns on the corner of Frenchman & Chartres. There were tons of people out enjoying this scene and it was around 10pm on a Wednesday.

Michael was a terrific host; he made sure we didn't have any questions about the apartment, and left us to enjoy our stay, but he was available if we needed anything at all. Since New Orleans is an easy drive for us and we loved the city so much, we plan on returning often in the future. Michael's place is our first choice for those future visits.
