Can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this Airbnb experience! After researching like a crazy person, I decided to stay in Bywater for my first New Orleans trip--- and it was exactly what I was looking for. Super cool neighborhood; kind of gritty, inspiring, and artsy. The apartment is the same- low key, homey, and a very authentic New Orleans vibe. I very much appreciated the great selection of books, and NOrleans photographs scattered on the walls. Kevin is very kind and welcoming, and provided everything we needed! If you're looking for a cool, walkable neighborhood, stay in Bywater. There's an awesome vegan pizza place around the corner, lots of great bars (Marty's was a fave), a record store, and my new all time favorite bar/music venue 'Bacchanal'. Overall, a fantastic experience!!!
