Marcus was an exceptional host! He was very resourceful, giving recommendations on restaurants and local stores. He was also nice enough to provide transportation to a local grocery store after letting him know my guest and I were planning on cooking during our stay! The house looked better in person than on the pictures. It was much larger than I expected which was great since it comfortably accommodated my guests and I. The neighborhood may look a little sketchy, but our neighbors were very friendly, giving local advice and allowing us to borrow some of their cooking utensils. Just a heads up if you are a light sleeper, there are roosters in the area that crow in the area in the morning. Depending on traffic, the house was about a 10 min ride from French Quarters, which was a plus as well. Overall, we were very, very happy about our stay at Marcus's house and will definitely recommend this house to anyone coming into NOLA for vacation.
