Myndi is one of the best hosts I have met through airbnb (and I use this service fairly often). As soon as you arrive it becomes evident that she puts a lot of thought and care in her guests' experience. For example, everything in her apartment is carefully labeled, so there is no guesswork when navigating your new home. Even though she was very busy, Myndi was attentive and very approachable via multiple forms of communication. The place was clean, home-like, and very welcoming in every way. Myndi provided all the amenities you could possibly need to have a comfortable stay. We found everything just as she described (her dogs were not an issue at all), it was very private, and well located. My personally favorite form of transportation were the blue bikes, there is a bike station a block away, and a nearby bike path that leads you straight into the center of town. I used these bikes to get to and from the apartment, day and dusk. However, If it got too late and we were tired we sometimes preferred a lyft/cab to go home. I was actually sad that I our schedules did not cross more with Myndis, she is clearly a very interesting (her apartment is decorated with her own paintings) and kind person (she alerted us of incoming really bad weather the day we had to leave, and even made herself available in case we were unable to find a ride to the airport due to the rain). In short, we were looking for a place to stay in NOLA for just a few days that was within our student budget, and found a place where I would've felt very comfortable staying longer and where I would gladly return to if I were to come back to this wonderful city.
