My friend and I had to book last minute for our conference that was this weekend and Dominique took us in. We both came in super late but he stayed up and made sure we got in safely. Staying in the garden district is definitely someplace I'd recommend if you'd like to be somewhere quiet and close to walking distance of shops and restaurants. Dominique also shared his stories and made an amazing lunch our first day which was a treat. We will definitely be back to stay with Dominique in the beautiful New Orleans.
