Phil's home was the perfect base for my week in New Orleans. It is a bit out of the city, which you should definitely note, but I appreciated being able to escape the bustle of downtown and feel like a local. Its a very easy ride into the French Quarter by bus, or anywhere really by Uber. He also saved the day by welcoming me in to chill in the living room and get to know the dogs almost six hours before normal check in - which was *greatly* appreciated.
For other solo women - it can always feel a bit risky to take a room in a strangers house, right? I felt completely safe my entire stay, all doors lock and you even get a key to your bedroom so you can keep it locked while youre out.
I highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a homey place where you wont hear the partiers going all night. All five stars!
