We had a pleasant stay in New Orleans. The house is within easy walking distance to the French Quarter and all the major sights. It was clean, and our hosts were very responsive when we had questions.

The only drawback in my mind -- and it's a pretty minor one -- is that the house felt more like a hotel and less like a home: The decor inside was minimal, and some creature comforts were lacking, like rugs on the floor or enough seating for everyone to comfortably socialize in the living room. Not a big deal, as we spent very little time at home, but it's something to keep in mind if your group plans to hang at the house a lot. Also, note that the hosts charge $25/hour for a late check-out (past 11 a.m.), if it's available.

Overall, very good value for the money.
