Betsey and Jack are superb hosts, supportive and communicative, while respecting the privacy of their guests. The creole style apartment is perfect for an individual or couple and located in a prime position in the Bywater, a neighborhood with great restaurants, bars, and architecture, but without the touristy craziness of the French Quarter.
Reliable wi-fi, AC that kept the apartment comfortable during a hot, humid week, and a small fridge, microwave, and coffee maker kept me happy when I was not out exploring the city. Just a couple of blocks from the River and its well-maintained walking/biking trail, which leads upriver to the FQ.
I should also mention that Betsey and Jack helped me immensely by washing a load of laundry and offering to receive my delayed luggage when it was delivered.
Summary: friendly, experienced hosts; an elegant, comfortable, and well-situated place in a very interesting part of town; and good connectivity and amenities. I would definitely rent Betsey and Jack’s flat if it’s available on my next visit to N.O.
