Herman is an absolute gentleman and super nice guy. Great place for the price. It is a very unique place and has the feel of a New Orleans home as listed in the pictures. We stayed here during Jazzfest. This place is a deal because of the location. It costs about $15 USD to uber to the French Quarter. In general most Uber rides home were between $15-20 USD home. Coming from Tipitina's one night was $25 USD. Do check Lyft though if Uber is too expensive. Herman is an Uber driver and the best part about that was the ride to and from the airport. Talk to him about options. Bus stop is super close and they have 24 hr passes for only $3 USD. If you absolutely need to be somewhere like a tour by a certain time though, I would give yourself a two hour window just in case.
Herman provides waters and a fridge just for his guests. Shared kitchen for cooking, shared bathroom and shared living room. He keeps that bathroom, kitchen and house spotless. The shower pressure is average. He also reminds his guests to keep everything in the rooms and keep them locked. The area itself felt safe and there's a convenience store nearby to get alcohol or a few groceries.
You do share the house with other guests and some times Herman is in the living room during the day. If you want complete privacy you shouldn't be booking a shared home anyway. I was with my girlfriend and we had a great time.
In general I would absolutely recommend this place. If you are the type of person that wants to go back n forth to your house and are trying to save money then you might want to explore options. But if you're wanting to just pack for the day and come back when you're ready to call it a night, this place is perfect. New Orleans is amazing and staying here added to the experience in a very positive way. Thanks Herman!!!! You'll always be family.
