Darren was a great host. He did a good job of bearing with us on our first trip to NOLA. We stayed from Thursday to Saturday prior to Fat Tuesday. All the research we did prior to the trip didn't do much once we were actually immersed in the situation. The rental was a great place to relax after exploring all the city had to offer. This is the perfect location to walk the FQ. Small but has all the amenities you need. Being in a gated location was a huge plus and made us feel much safer. We really appreciated all the advice, info and hospitality.
