Herb’s place was the perfect getaway for me and my girlfriend. We spent 5 nights there, and really enjoyed everything the place had to offer. Herb has outfitted it with all the amenities you would ever need, and the bed is super comfortable. The massive garden and sitting area out back is pretty amazing, though we didn’t take much advantage of it since we spent a lot of time out and about in the city. The location of Herb’s place is excellent—it’s in a safe residential neighborhood, and is also pretty centrally located. There’s a huge park close-by, and the French Quarter is only a 30-40 minute walk. Treme is also nearby, and is a very interesting area to check out. We walked everywhere, and when we didn’t, we took Lyfts ($12 or so to the Garden District and the Bywater), and occasionally public transportation. Renting bikes would be great in that neighborhood (next time!). Herb is an awesome host—so smart, friendly, helpful and full of fascinating information about New Orleans. He was also very respectful of our privacy; we never felt uncomfortable or like he ever encroached upon our personal space. Thanks so much for an excellent stay at your very cool apartment, Herb!
