Marc responded quickly to our inquiry and questions we had as we approached our stay in his home. He sent clear directions/instructions and called me (because who picks up the phone anymore) the day before our arrival to answer questions. His house was perfect for our stay during the Essence Music Festival. It was not only functional, but beautiful too! And he has an excellent taste in music, an obvious eye for photography, and clocks. The home isn't too far away from great New Orleans food and our new favorite street, Frenchmen.
