The Bywater area is beautiful. It's a GREAT location since it's only a 15-20 min walk to Frenchmen Street/French Quarter and it's so easy to get around to everywhere else from there. You can either walk Royal St or along the water side (both have great views). There are quite a few local bars within a few blocks walking distance as well, and a great breakfast place on the corner of the block (Elizabeth's). We walked everywhere when we were there!

Adam and his wife were so warm and welcoming. We arrived late, but Adam was still kind enough to show us around the house and make sure we had everything we needed. He gave us great recommendations of places to go eat, and the best ways to get around. Everything you need is in the room (towels, water, hanging closet and a big comfy bed).

I wouldn't recommend staying anywhere else in New Orleans!
