We stayed at Brian's 2 nights, just before Mardi Gras and we really enjoyed it!
The house is lovely and our room was tidy and clean, with a lovely private bathroom.
We were really lucky that Brian was at home when we arrived (30 min taxi ride from the airport), so we had a very nice chat and he gave us many tips for our stay!
The location is not central, but we knew it, so it was ok for us! Though in the evening, the roads around are pretty dark, but we didn't have any issue during our stay!
