Mia, and her place, are awesome.

The Hostess: Mia is extremely accomodating. I've stayed in lots of AirBnbs, but she takes the cake. She was communicative by text, showed up in person with a drink in hand and a big hug to walk us through the place, telling us every little detail (including the history of the place). She's chipper, friendly and genuine. She remained accessible the rest of the weekend by text. She also provides all sorts of amenities you don't expect, like shampoos and what not, as well as stocking the fridge. Oh, and she has a stocked bar. In short, she clearly takes the job of hostess seriously, and thinks through how she can be helpful. Just a good human being, really.

The location: You're a short walk from Magazine St, and a longer walk from the French Quarter and all that goodness. It's always a good idea to stay safe in New Orleans -- opting for cabs late night and so on -- but we found the location unique and extremely convenient.

The place: The place is really, really cool. It's big and unique. It looks better than it does in the pictures. It's just a cool spot to either return to, or to lay-low for some time. Great artwork, cool layout, big ceilings, comfy beds, etc.

Overall, I've stayed in several places in NOLA, and this will now be my go-to.
