It was a great place to other than a few tiny hiccups which I will mention later.
All in all, a great location, taking the ferry offers some wonderful views of the skyline for only two bucks, and you don't have to walk past bourbon street to get to the french quarter. Algiers is a cozy place, and allows you to seem some of the local diversity that is sometimes missing in the more touristy areas. There are great coffee shops and restaurants that have delicious gluten free options, and the ferry is a quick and safe walk about 8-10 minutes away.
The only hiccups were that we were all coffee drinkers and we were a little disappointed to only find a single cup Keurig machine, and no reusable basket. Also, although it had a kitchen, it was missing a few key items such as kitchen knives and a kettle that make those morning where you wanna have a quick breakfast before a day of sightseeing a little bit easier. That being said, many of the other places to rent in NOLA don't even allow you to use the kitchen. As long as you come a little more prepared than we were, or want to purchase a cheap kitchen knife when in NOLA, these things are no problem considering how great the apartment is otherwise. If you plan on eating out anyways, then obviously these things won't affect you. To sum it up, it was like staying in a really nice hotel suite, for a much better price and an interesting location.
Can't say enough times how great and cozy this place was, and I'm sure the host would be willing to provide guests with these quick fix items if you let him know. We were able to make do without, and it was a pleasure staying at Wright Houses in Algiers. Would definitely rent this place again if travelling with the 6-7 of us that were there this time.
