My goodness did we luck out with Sylvia's place. The apartment is right on Frenchmen street, and we came for the music; we were not disappointed. The apartment is very grand, the amenities are excellent (luxurious even), the kitchen has everything you need, the mattress is comfy (and I'm picky), Sylvia brought us fresh sheets and towels without being asked and tidied up for us! The balcony view of the revelry below was the highlight of our trip, as was dancing in the living room to the music from the Spotted Cat across the street. If we return to N'awlins, we would happily return to stay with Sylvia. Her accurate description includes that the apartment can be a bit noisy at night due to the music clubs on the block - we were there for Halloween weekend and things were jumpin'- but with the curtains closed you can sleep (and we did sleep) like babies. Thank you Slyvia for everything. Lassiez les bon temps rouler!
