The house is beautiful, and our experience with Paul was great. Although we never spoke face to face he was very quick to respond to any concerns we had while we were in New Orleans, responding within an hour or so of every email I sent him. The house is large, very well equipped, and beautifully appointed. The neighbourhood was also lovely, in my opinion, but does require a bit of city smarts, particularly attention to your surroundings. But it is within walking distance of many of my favourite sites in New Orleans, including St. Augustine church, the Backstreet Cultural Museum, and Armstrong park. And of course it is very close to both the French quarter and Frenchmen street. It is a tremendous place to stay and I recommend it heartily.
