We enjoyed our stay at Meg's apartment; it is exactly as described, clean and comfortable. It is located in Uptown in a quiet neighborhood a bit away from the French Quarter. You will need to use the public transit, (about a 12 minute walk to the stop), a cab, or rent a vehicle to get around. We enjoyed our interactions with the local people at the bus stop, they were very friendly and helpful. They shared stories of their experiences during Katrina and the wonderful things to do while in New Orleans. And the cabbies were quite entertaining on our rides home. I recommended it especially if you want to sleep away from the noise of the French Quarter, like more space and comfort.
