This is the second time I've stayed here. My daughter and I stayed here last August when I brought her back to nearby Tulane. We were so busy then we didn't spend much time in this great little apartment. This time my wife and grown son came to spend Thanksgiving with my daughter. Last time I didn't cook at all; this time we actually cooked a couple of big breakfasts, made coffee and tea, used the fridge, etc. A very nice kitchen with great windows and natural light. This trip we also used the balcony - it was so nice to sit out there, drink coffee, and read in the warm mornings. The only downside is that garbage and dumpster pickup happened before dawn 2 mornings and it was loud. There are a couple of great bars and a bunch of restaurants within a 2-3 block walk, including a terrific breakfast place: Satsuma. It'd be a wonderful full-time apartment if I lived in NOLA. I'll happily stay here again next time if it's available.
