I lived in New Orleans most of my life. Elise's place uptown was perfect. She is a wonderful host. I extended my stay, since her place is safe, comfortable, spacious, and has all the amenities one could ask for. It's very close to my favorite coffee shops, restaurants, music venues, unique local shops, a theater, etc. It's easy to get downtown, to the quarter, and city park. Her place is close to the streetcar, which is fun to ride and a good way to see the sights. I rented a car, and parking wasn't an issue for me. I can't wait to go back, and I'll definitely stay at Elise's place!
