We have just returned from a week in Christian's apartment with another couple and we all thought it was perfect. We all really liked the aesthetic and it feels big enough for four. The beds are great with loads of fresh good-quality linen and towels. The wooden floors are pretty and the building is a lovely old place on a corner that's no more than a lovely half-hour stroll from anywhere in the Garden District or the French Quarter with lots of restaurants and bars just around the corner. I really shouldn't forget to mention the shower, which was just really good.

Christian is a fantastic host too and helped with everything we needed. I hope we didn't leave too much of a mess for him and would love to stay here again whenever we visit New Orleans again, which will be soon we hope.

New Orleans is a great place for a vacation. We saw Dr John at the House of Blues on our first night and spent New Year's eve on a paddle steamer on the Mississippi watching the fireworks.
