I loved this Airbnb! I wanted to be in a quieter, less touristy part of town, but not too far away from more happening zones. Lucien's place delivered on that, and the atmosphere of the house and yard were so homey.
Lucien was a very attentive host. He answered my questions promptly, gave clear instructions (big shout-out to his neighbor, Ms. Jesse, for helping me check in and out!), and checked on me midway through the stay. I met him just once briefly and wish I'd had more time to chat with him. I did enjoy hearing him play the piano through the wall.
Two things to know:
1. The neighborhood looks rough around the edges, though I found it very quiet and peaceful. Not everyone will be okay with it, so make sure you are. Safety concerns are real in NOLA, but sometimes people (especially other tourists) blow them out of proportion.
2. The streetcar is just a few blocks away, but it's slow and not super reliable. You might end up Ubering a lot if you mostly want to hang out downtown.
