Tom's place was the perfect setting for our first trip to New Orleans. We had plenty of privacy and space. The place is clean, gorgeous, beautifully decorated, and has plenty of natural light through the many windows.
Tom stocked each room with the essentials and then some. We found tons of useful magazines and publications to get us started around the city. Tom himself was very welcoming and happy to tell us his favorite places in the city.
The location of this space is amazing. We felt very safe walking around the neighborhood, and it's just a couple short blocks to the trolley. Get a Jazzy pass and your travels are simple and cheap. We had an incredible breakfast at Biscuits & Buns on Banks, again within walking distance. There's also a coffee shop, vegan cafe, and Rouses supermarket, all in walking distance.
When he first showed us around, the radio was on the local WWOZ jazz station, and I don't think we ever turned it off during our stay. We so appreciated the ambience of the place, the value of such a gorgeous space, and Tom's good vibes in accommodating us!
