We had excellent, prompt communication with Steve and Melissa from the start. Melissa greeted us cheerfully when we arrived and ensured that we felt welcome. The apartment was just as it appeared on the site; beautifully and uniquely decorated, very clean and with all the essentials of home. The added bonus was the beer and other refreshments we found in the fridge and in the cupboard (Café Du Monde coffee). The location was also within easy walking distance of the French Quarter. The apartment was in a quiet neighborhood with many cats and residents who said hello as we passed by. Importantly, I felt safe with my teenage daughter accompanying me. The building was very secure with electronic locks only opened by code assigned by our hosts. We would highly recommend this apartment.
