Erik's place is in a wonderful location if you're looking to stay outside of the French Quarter. Even then, you're not far away at all. I walked into the Quarter one day to meet some friends and it took me less than 30 minutes. If you're driving it's less than ten minutes. And of course, the street car is just a block away if you want to use that. There were multiple restaurants and bars within walking distance of the house which I took advantage of on a daily basis. The house itself had everything I needed--comfortable bed, good shower pressure and solid wifi so I could work in the mornings. There was also a nice little outdoor deck area which I didn't use but seemed like a nice place to unwind with an evening drink. Uber drivers were always just a few minutes away too when I was going a little farther. Erik was extremely helpful and quick to respond the few times I reached out. I would definitely stay here again.
