Paul made check in a breeze, which was exemplary of the entirety of our stay at his little home. It was the perfect place for two people with everything we needed to cook a small meal for the one or two times we didn't feel like eating from a restaurant and a place to relax after a long day. The little amenities that were included were very nice and made it really feel like home away from home for the week that my partner and I stayed.

The neighborhood is undergoing extensive renovations and can at times feel sketchy, but overall it is a safe area, especially if you are being smart. It is a great home base for treks into Marigny, French Quarters, and Frenchmen St - it is a short drive to the various plantations and attractions in the Louisiana area. Once the construction is complete, it looks as if a streetcar will be right on St. Claude, making Paul's home an even better location for being away from the noise of nightly events, while still being close enough to enjoy it. If driving is your thing, parking seems to be very easy, as there was always a few spots a few steps from the house.

One thing worth noting, is that you must really like dogs to stay here. His two dogs are incredibly sweet and are reasonably trained, but if you are not used to being woken up by a barking dog at 2 in the morning, this may not be the place for you. We have a very talkative and active nocturnal cat, so we're use to blocking out the noise.

Overall, this was a great place to stay if you are looking for an authentic feeling Nawlins home.
