This was our first trip to New Orleans so we weren’t sure what to expect for Mardi Gras. After booking with Tim he was extremely helpful in giving us tons of information about the parade schedules, street closures and what to see and do in the city. The house is clean and looks exactly as listed. The location was perfect for us, as we could walk everywhere we needed including many shops, fantastic restaurants as well as grocery stores. It was nice not needing a car and Uber rides were fast to arrive and cheap to get to almost everywhere including the French Quarter. We were most surprised by the friendliness of the neighborhood, everyone was saying good morning, good evening and happy Mardi Gras. We felt safe everywhere we went in the neighborhood, quite a relief when you stay in an unknown town. Our flight was delayed six hours due to weather in our home state and Tim was in touch with us the whole time and after finally arriving was gracious enough to give us a parade spot with his family and crew. Tim was even thoughtful enough to put a whole folder together with information on the area, and all of their recommendations of places to eat and things to see and do. I would highly recommend the apartment to anybody and we hope to be guests again real soon.
