I enjoyed the stay in Paul's apartment. Check-in was smoothly, thanks to the instructions available online. The apartment was cozy and nice, in typical New Orleans style, with all the required accessories/rooms, bathroom with plenty of towels and washing machine, kitchen with oven, fridge etc, living room with television and sofa.
The apartment is located near the French quarter. For me, it was actually quite distant from the convention center. However, there is a bus stop close by (which I never used).
The only disadvantage I experienced are the people in the neighborhood. I never had any problem with them, but I felt that you need to be careful when walking there in the late night...
