This was a great place to stay. The loft was fantastic, and the distance to the Algiers ferry is perfect. Our group walked over to the ferry every morning and took it across the river to the Canal street terminal. This puts you right in the Business District so you are just a few blocks from everything you could ever want to eat or see. Plus you are walking distance from the French Quarter. At night we took the Ferry back over and stopped off at a little pub in Algiers Point called the Crown and Anchor. There are several coffee shops nearby, and a nice little cafe called Tout De Suite that has a great breakfast - just a couple off the route to the Ferry.
