Greg and Danielle are wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcome!! Greg was available to answer our questions at any time and offered us many great ideas for seeing the NOLA region and lots of help. He's a really sweet fellow!
The neighborhood is a very interesting and friendly one and we enjoyed both the food coop and St. Roch Market for a wide variety of food choices.
We used the city buses (#88 or #57) to get either to Canal St. or closer to the French quarter when the heat and humidity was too much for us. The bus stop signs in front of the St. Roch Market are missing due to the construction next door, but the buses stop just to the east of it (by the square (concrete?) trash container) on St. Claude. Just wave at the bus - and they are pretty frequent, especially during weekdays. The $3 bus/trolley all-day pass is a real bargain. You can buy it when you get on the bus. The bus drivers were all very nice and helpful to us (as were the other riders).
Great City, Great Apartment, Great Hosts!!!
