I have stayed in the studio for 8 days during Mardi Gras. The studio is very comfortable, well organised, nicely decorated and super clean.
The kitchen is large and fully equipped, the bath room is very nice, with a large stock of extra towels and sheets.
Clearly Steve and Melissa made a real effort to make it an outstanding place to stay.
I must also say that I had many questions and requests for my hosts, and they were always very patient and responsive, and always let me feel very welcome.
Regarding the neighbourhood: it a quite neighbourhood, about 15-20 minutes walk from the tourists highlights in the french quarter and about 10-15 minutes walk from the excellent music clubs in Frenchman street.
I have stayed their on my own for few days, and with a friend in the other days (unexpectedly), and it was clear that the studio is built for couples or singles, and not for partners, as there is only a single double bed. But this is my own responsibility, since the original plan was to be there alone.
Overall I think this is a great place, if you are ok with the walking distance, and the hosts are very helpful and cooperative.
