Matt was a fantastic host. I messaged him several times before and during our arrival. He was very prompt with his responses. His home is very modern and infused with remnants of the history and culture of New Orleans. You have additional amenities like toiletries in the bathroom and various breakfast items in the kitchen. Also, you will feel very comfortable, essentially having the house to yourself (we rented the two rooms). His home is located in what is called Mid-City and you will have easy access to various parts of the city. The famous City Park, art museum, and St. Louis Cemetery (#3) is in walking distance. We drove down to New Orleans, but we didn't need our car. The 91 bus (for $1.25) took us to the French Quarter (Rampart and Canal Street) where you can easily access Bourbon Street (we visited during the weekend before Fat Tuesday) and the Louis Armstrong Park. The 90 bus comes in front of his home and takes you to the Frenchmen Street area, renown for showcasing outstanding live bands (then you can take the 55 to the heart of the French Quarter). I definitely recommend a stay with Matt. I will stay here again when I visit New Orleans.
