We had such a lovely time at Steve's apartment. The accommodations were clean, very nicely decorated, and stocked with coffee, soft drinks, and various spices/sugar. We were able to walk to the French Quarter in about 20 minutes, and ate well at a bunch of restaurants in the neighborhood. We were a two-minute walk from prime parade-side real estate, but were far enough that things stayed quiet once we were indoors. We'd stay in this apartment again in a heartbeat if we ever visited New Orleans again!
