We had a lovely time staying at Brian's. Check-in and check-out were very flexible, the house was easy to find, the room and bathroom tidy and clean. We also loved the fact that Brian lent us two bicycles to cycle around New Orleans which made our experience amazing! He was very responsive to any inquiries and had recommendations for us. Highly recommendable if you don't mind being away from the center of the madness. Brian's neighborhood is just across the bridge from the hipster neighborhood, Bywater, and a 20 minute pleasant bike ride, partly along the Mississippi river, to the French Quarter. It is really the best place to be in NOLA because only like this will you get the chance to get out of the center and see that there's so much more to NOLA than Bourbon Street. Thumbs up!
