Excellent communication from days to even hours prior to arrival. Instructions were precise. The accommodations were ample in a safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors and beautiful historic homes a short ferry ride away from the French Quarter and Bourbon Street. The host provided recommendations of places to visit and restraints at which to eat. Everything was clean and the bed was extremely comfortable, exactly what I needed before and after long drives in my road trip.
The host and her husband engaged in friendly conversation before bed and it was nice to experience NOLA kind of like he locals and away from the commercialized (and unrepresentative) areas of the city. I gained an insiders view (as much as is possible within the short time I was there) of what it is like to live there on this trip.
