This was my first Airbnb stay. I tried it after a friend used it in Florida and raved about her experience. For me, I know that my amazing experience was in fact enhanced by my stay at Adrienne and Derek's place. New Orleans is a beautiful city! Even in this period of rebuilding, my son and I could not help but to be in awe at every corner we turned. We arrived to being greeted by Adrienne and we were able to meet Derek not too long after that. They were the epitome of hospitable. They were so kind and considerate. It made us feel comfortable and welcomed. The pictures of this place do it no justice! It was beautiful! It was extremely clean and spacious. I love the neighborhood. I don't know if staying at a hotel would've allowed for us to experience New Orleans the way that we did. Adrienne and Derek also provided many suggestions for activities and transportation. The place really has everything you need with the best hosts you could imagine. The combination of the two set the bar and I can only hope that my future experiences will be able to meet my high expectations that I've established because of this experience. I only have two complaints.. One is the possibility that their place may not be available for my next visit. And the other is that despite the beautiful and spacious townhouse that we live in, my son is now trying to get us to relocate to New Orleans, specifically to Adrienne and Derek's place, and I don't know if I'll ever hear the end of it. lol... I would absolutely recommend.
