Thomas ensured that our experience was phenomenal, and we couldn't have asked for more. He was incredibly accommodating when we wanted to show up 5 hours ahead of schedule and gave us perfect recommendations for places to see and the best ways to get around. The house itself was clean and comfortable. All four of us made a pick from his great collection of books and relaxed reading on the hammock. The neighbors were very friendly, and the location convenient. We all fell in love with New Orleans and would return if only to have a chance to see Thomas again. Both home and host are the best you could wish for.
