My wife and I enjoyed ourselves at Eugenie and Seph's place. So clean and nice! Eugenie replied so quickly to our messages, and she and Seph addressed our concerns in a completely positive and generous way. The house itself is in a beautiful area, and it's only 1.5 miles from the train station, if this mode interests you. In fact, no car rental is needed at all; public transit is close by, convenient, and very inexpensive. It's just a short walk from Seph and Eugenie's place to the bus stop, and then a short bus trip directly to the French Quarter. Bus transit between the train station and the airport is also convenient. Free smartphone bus/train apps, like Moovit, make riding a breeze, with no planning necessary.
