I have used Airbnb for a while now and I think I can safely say that Daniel is by far the most responsive, polite, and accommodating host I’ve ever had. While his place wasn’t the most modern, what it lacked in updates it made up for in comfort, convenience, and hospitality.
Two huge wins are the backyard spa and the location. The Bywater is a trendy, up and coming neighborhood and Daniel’s place is in walking distance to several excellent cafes, bars, and restaurants (many of which were on his recommendation).
We walked down to the French Quarter several times (though it’s an even easier 5 minute drive). All in all, it’s a great place to stay (easy parking too) while getting to explore all of New Orleans, and what’s better you get to come back to a nice little backyard oasis each night to unwind.
I will definitely stay again next time I’m in town!
Side tip: Do the Nola art walk Airbnb experience in the Bywater. It really helps you get the lay of the land... it starts at a coffee shop only a few blocks away and takes you all the way down to the French quarter. You get to see some awesome street art that will keep you looking around your whole trip!
