We really enjoyed staying in Graham's apartment - it's pretty centrally located and an easy walk to the French Quarter. I found the area well lit and safe - I did some walking around after dark although we generally took ubers or taxis (both of which are plentiful and not too expensive). The apartment itself is newly decorated and clean with all that you would need for a short stay in New Orleans, lots of space (there were 3 of us, but there would be plenty of floor space for many more). Graham and Caitlin were incredibly friendly and responsive hosts, bringing us a 6 pack when we arrived and being flexible about our leaving time.

I would highly recommend staying here, it's a great spot and a lovely apartment - close enough to the action when you want to enjoy all the fun New Orleans offers, but far enough away to allow you some quiet sleep time when you need to recharge!
