Lynn's New Orleans apartment was a charming and utterly delightful place to stay. The beds and soft linens are very comfy and the bathroom is ludicrously large with a full-sized jet tub and separate large shower. The upstairs back deck overlooks a quiet private yard from which you can listen to the gentle clip clop of the occasional horse carriage passing nearby. The location of the apartment is its major asset: easy walking to major French Quarter sites, but in a neighborhood block that is peaceful and restful. From the apartment window we were treated to occasional calliope music from a musician busking at a nearby intersection. A real gem is nearby Frenchmen Street where we found so many places to eat and listen to great music. The aesthetic of the apartment leans towards an appealing worn and shabby --but very tidy!-- chic, which fits in well with the vibe of its Old Town surroundings. The kitchen is well-equipped and functional.

Lynn communicated very well with us as we prepared for our trip, even included three pages of fun tips for local sights and fooderies. Arrival and entry were very easy and clear, as was parking. If we are ever to return to NOLA, we would return to Lynn's place in a heartbeat.

One tip for future NOLA visitors: come prepared with cash in various denominations. There are many cash-only places and the informal economy (i.e. tips) is very important in this city.

Thanks, Lynn!
