Anyone who wants a true New Orleans experience should stay at Sylvia's. Right in the heart of Frenchmen's St. with the music and the fun and walking distance to the restaurants and history of the French Quarter. The apartment is very comfortable and very clean. Lots of extra supplies in the drawer and cupboards, books and tourist info for everything you want to do, music art on the wall and comfy beds. Perhaps if you wanted a quiet getaway, this isn't the place for you as the music plays till about 2 in the morning but even though I was prepared with earplugs, I never needed them as the music was just part of the background noise that lulled me to sleep and the air conditioning dulled it anyway. Cafe next door for good coffee and muffins in the morning, music in the myriad of nightclubs, restaurants in every club, even an art market across the street and people dancing in the street to musicians and full bands playing on the street. So much fun and we loved being so central. Sylvia was a fabulous host, so generous and great info leading up to our visit and checked in to make sure we were doing okay and having fun during our stay. She is the best. Highly recommended and we would definitely come back.
