My wife and I loved Lynn's charming apartment. We love the renovated old houses in the neighborhood and it really is a perfect location for seeing the french quarter and the marigny (frenchman st. and all of the jazz clubs.) It's on a street that connects these two popular areas so prepare for the occasional reveler and horse drawn buggy. The house and bed are so comfy that you'll hardly notice it. We never saw the host, but access was easy, she sent a long email with great food and site seeing suggestions, and her partner was available by text at all hours. Hot water ran out after 2 normal showers, so don't expect to luxuriate!
