This was my friends' and my first experience using AirBnB and it certainly lived up to the expectation. Miriam couldn't have been a more helpful and gracious host. Her place was in a good location that was in walking distance of most of the famous tourist and non-tourist places in New Orleans. The location is a safe part of town and our neighbors were mostly retirees so everyone in the neighborhood was very friendly. It was also a great place for five of us. She provides all the amenities and more and even provides some food for us inside the apartment. The good thing about New Orleans homes is that they are sectioned off into two sections: a front and a back. And the two sections are demarcated by a single door that remains closed so while the guests stay in the front, the host stays in the back and the guests are given total privacy from the host. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if I decide to go back to New Orleans again for vacation.
