My wife and I spent five wonderful days here as guests of Steve, and could not be happier. As this was our first trip, we figured the location would be ideal for exploring the French Quarter. To our great pleasure, we found everything and more within a short walk. The apartment we rented is part of a beautiful manor house with a rich history that we discovered thanks to our hosts, who left us a folder filled with information about the house and local hotspots. Our hosts were charming, gracious, and easygoing. They kept in contact with us before and during our trip, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
Inside, the home was everything from the pictures and more. Old-world comfort comes to mind, with large windows, tall ceilings, and a spacious interior. The kitchen was really the only modern area and served us well since we chose to eat some of our meals there before we ventured into the Quarter. We drank our morning coffee in the little courtyard outside our door and lounged on the swinging sofa just outside the bedroom watching a parade pass by. It is hard to imagine this trip going any better, and our accommodations were perfect for the occasion.
As an aside, we ate our first and last meals at the restaurant on the opposite corner. If you're remotely carnivorous, you won't be sorry.
