Zak's place was great. Everything was smooth, and the location is great. Within walking distance to the French Quarter, but also somewhat more sane. Cute cafes and stores in the neighborhood, along with the lovely architecture that is true New Orleans. I loved the comfortable bar/cafe under the inn - the best samosas and amazing and reasonable cocktails, especially during happy hour. The staff there were also sweet and friendly. The biggest drawback was the streetlight directly outside my room which illuminated the room to almost daylight hours at night. it was very difficult to sleep because of that, and I really wish they could have added a black-out curtain or some sort of shade to block that out. I also had to sleep with ocean noises to block out the partying folks outside, but hey, it is New Orleans to be fair. Overall, a great place save for those few complaints.
