We’d a short 3 day visit to New Orleans and Max’s place was great for what we wanted. We didn’t get to meet Max but check-in was easy with the keys accessed in a lock box. All was clean and no dog or bug issues noticed as mentioned in another review. It’s a good 40 min walk from the centre of the French Quarter but the price reflects that. We did the walk once in the humidity and after that used Uber to get in and out. A reasonable $8-10 into downtown and we never had to wait more than 5min, even late at night. Uber’s are everywhere in New Orleans. It was about $40 to the airport. We didn’t have the opportunity to use the blue bikes unfortunately. There’s also a large Whole Foods market about 10 minutes walk from the apartment where we got some breakfast provisions. There’s no shortage of good restaurants in New Orleans. We had under drinking age teenage kids who wanted to see live jazz and found some restaurants where we could book to eat and also experience live bands with them. Altogether good value and a good base to explore New Orleans.
