Sam's loft is exactly as it shows in the pictures. It is very clean and charming. The air conditioning keeps the entire place very comfortable. The windows line both sides of the loft making the whole place bright and fresh. Our furthest walk to a restaurant that we had booked was 7 minutes. The shopping, patios, dining and cirque du soleil are minutes from the doorstep. The parking across the street is by permit only, or don't even stop there. We learned this quickly with a $78 parking ticket while unloading. There are many parking lots about 5 blocks away for about $18/day. You have to go pay each morning at the one we found. If you're looking for a great breakfast, Crepe Suzette is literally around the corner on Rue St Paul and is top-notch. There is also a jazz restaurant with amazing food and live music also on Rue St Paul called Modavie. We hope to return to this loft again on our next trip. Thanks Sam!!!
