Oh where do I begin? I was going to be in New Orleans for a month and so finding the right place was really important. Reading the reviews, it seemed to me that Martin would be one to welcome me into his neighborhood, which I really wanted. His place was just as advertised, perfect for what I need. Beds were comfy, bathroom and kitchen were great and the front porch was perfect. He was right next door for any question or need I had but was so respectful as well. I so enjoyed his welcoming presence on the front porch, sharing a drink, meeting his neighbors. I loved the location, right off Oak St. and near the Mississippi River levee, great for running, walking, cycling. I'm so glad I took the extra time to find Martin. He's thoughtful, interesting, hard-working, insightful and has a generous, welcoming spirit. I will treasure the month that I've had in this lovely New Orleans neighborhood.
