For our group of 6, we don't think there's anywhere else to stay in New Orleans than at Daniel's Opencanvas. Overall, we had a spectacular time and give 5 stars to Daniel as a host, Opencanvas and New Orleans!

OPENCANVAS: We had the back two rooms of Daniel's house, which included a kitchen, large bathroom, and the back patio with functioning hot tub as featured in the cover image. Daniel also kindly included towels, bathrobes and slippers for us to use, as well as various toiletries and air mattresses! Coffee and milk was given to us and Daniel even offered to kindly pick us up some groceries, to which we'd pay the receipt, since he was on his way to the store. We felt we had a lot of privacy and enjoyed the peacefulness and nature surrounding us. Next time we visit we'll be sure to use the grill for bbq-ing.

Daniel was a spectacular host! So great to meet him at the airport, where he gave us a ride to Opencanvas. Daniel was always highly communicative, always sure to answer our questions or give awesome suggestions. One time we even asked if he had a guitar in the house. He didn't but Daniel did give us a recommendation of where to rent one. Wondrous!

Although we arrived around 11am, check-in wasn't until 3pm. This was no issue since we were able to drop our bags off at the house. After which, Daniel gave us a quick tour of the area and dropped us off at Muriel's for lunch (highly recommend the restaurant). There's so much to do in New Orleans, you can't be bored. Especially since before our arrival Daniel sent us 2 pages worth of places to visit, events, restaurants, and tours.

LOCATION: The Marigny/Bywater area the house is located in is absolutely charming. Quiet streets, beautiful houses, with neat stores, restaurants and bars ever couple of blocks or so. It's a lovely 20 minute walk from Opencanvas to the French Quarter, and a bit shorter walk than that to Frenchmen Street. And if you don't feel like walking, the uber drivers are very kind and funny!
